by Lori Dorn from Laughing Squid on (#1P9ZR)
While spending time at the Alturas Wildlife Sanctuary in Costa Rica, Brave Wilderness host Coyote Peterson spent some time with a very curious and charming baby tamandua named Barrou, who introduced himself to everyone. Barrou was brought to the center after his mother was killed. The hope is to release Barrou back into the wild once he's big enough to defend himself.
