Anyone ever heard of a Tayra? Our Tallahassee Museum has two of them
on loan for the summer. I hope to get there to see them. They are
described as "weasel-like animals native to Central and South America.
Slender in appearance, they have a light-colored head and the remainder
of their body is dark brownish-black, featuring a trademark creamy
patch on the neck. They are a part of the mustelids species, related
to otters and ferrets."
Here's a link to a UTube video of one
