The tropical mammal called Tayra (Eira barbara) (linked to Wikipedia) is called in Costa Rica Spanish a Tolomuco or Tayra and is found throughout Central America and the northern 2/3 of South America. A couple of years ago Tico Times had an article titled Meet the Tayra which includes a camera trap video of one. And of course I have a Tayra Gallery of my photos from two different visits to Esquinas Rainforest Lodge, the only place I’ve seen one in the wild. Here’s three shots from this year’s Esquinas trip . . .
¡Pura Vida!
