Giant anteater
This giant anteater was roaming the plains of El Encanto del Guanapalo, Colombia. It uses its claws to dig open ant and termite colonies and its thin, long, sticky tongue to catch them inside their nests. We had to get up before sunrise to see it but were able to get quite close without disturbing it. It is larger than I anticipated, probably 2 meters long when including the tail.

Nikon D500, Sigma 150-600mm C, 390 mm, f/6.3, 1/200 s, ISO 2000, handheld
