Therefore, based on the phenotypic evidence at hand, we are quite confident of this identification and would even assign our vouchers to the nominotypical subspecies if a trinomial identification were deemed necessary. Remarkably, however, DNA sequence data suggest that western Amazonian and Guianan kinkajous differ by as much as 7%–9% at the mitochondrial cytochrome-

It climbs around on the branches of trees looking for fruits, calling out “kuichik.” As it moves around up in the trees it rustles the branches lightly. Kinkajous come out of their holes during the day when a hunter climbs up a tree (to kill a sloth, retrieve an arrow, recover a killed monkey, etc.) and may try to bite him.</paragraph>
