The Search for Charlie Crowfoot and the Coatimundi continues...

  My mission to get a viewable copy of 'Charlie Crowfoot and the Coatimundi' continues.
  Having $99 dollars would probably help at this point.  Apparently the film is available on a 'Disney Treasures Collection' DVD!  When an extra one hundred dollar bill lands in my lap, I'm going to have to continue my hunt for a cheaper version of this film.
  During Christmas I received a very cool gift from someone who truly 'gets' my love for coatis.  The last gift I was handed to open was a very light, very flat object about the size of a standard sheet of typing paper.  After removing the bow, carefully peeling off the wrapping paper and separating two flat rigid piece of shipping cardboard used for photos, I was elated to see an old black-and-white glossy print of a photo of a coati perched on a metal bar.  The tagline on the bottom of the photo got me even more excited...'The Wonderful World of Disney - Charlie Crowfoot and the Coati Mundi'!
  Amazing!
  It's a piece of promotional material used to promote the film.
  Below you'll find two high-resolution images of the front and back of the photo.
  While I have yet to see the film, I quietly love not being able to afford it right now.  It's not always about the end of the race, it's most definitely about the journey.
   Hopefully you'll enjoy following along as this blog continues and I uncover more and more cool things that coatis have managed to get themselves into.
  Thanks for your continued support of this blog and enjoy the photos!

Welcome to 2012, everyone!
 To start things off this year, I'd like to introduce a site that I'm sure I'll be contributing to when I can.  The amazingly kind and warm-hearted Birgit Sommer of the Rainbow Wildlife Rescue facility in Weatherford, Texas has recently opened a site that has been needed for quite some time.
  I was excited and smiling when I read that Rainbow Wildlife Rescue will be opening CoatiRescue.com as part of the Rainbow Wildlife Rescue facility!
  For those of you who love the coati as much as I do, this is the perfect chance to help my favorite little troublemakers out when people have decided they made a bad choice to begin with.
  You can help Birgit Sommer and the coatis out by making donations or, if you live in the area, contributing building materials or even labor.
   These little monsters are notoriously difficult to take care of and Birgit will probably need all the help she can get.  Please mention that you heard about her efforts through this blog.
  Watch the video to meet the newest addition to Rainbow Wildlife Rescue's Coati Rescue, Cody.
   Thanks to all of the amazing support from everyone who've been reading this blog and reposting!  I have a TON of interesting coati news coming to this blog as we roll into the new year. 
  Sincerely,
  Tony Ley
