Coati Made Santa's Naughty List in 2023 at Zoo

I know it's late for something Christmas-related...but it's been a year since my last post.

But I feel like those who follow this blog and who love the coatimundi won't mind something that affirms what everyone who knows about coatis would at least smile at.

In December of 2023, the Drusillas Zoo in East Sussex compiled a naughty and nice list of some of the animals who call the zoo home.

Among them...and really to no one's surprise...a coati named Chop made the list...

And even less of a surprise?

Chop was on the Naughty List.

"Chop the coati: Chop snatches away all the tastiest treats for himself and doesn’t leave his little family a chance to get a look in on the goods."

I'd honestly be surprised if a coati ever made the Nice List...

Even the nicest ones always seem to be in goblin mode.

December 2024 will be here before you realize it.

Might be kinda fun to see if they do this again and if Chop can keep his crown for two consecutive years.
