The giant anteaters (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), the largest of the anteaters, can be found in Central and South America and is easily recognized by its elongated snout and distinctive coat, especially its large bushy tail.
It feeds mainly on ants and termites, using its front claws to excavate anthills and termite mounds and its long tongue to collect the insects.
