Kinkajous, like this one pausing between sips of balsa blossom nectar in Panama's Soberania National Park, are indigenous only to the tropical forests of Central and South America. These photogenic tree-dwellers have the appearance of a bear and the agility of a monkey, but they actually belong to the raccoon family. Photograph by Mattias Klum
