When are selling tickets?!! It certainly looks entertaining!

PRO+

Thank you. It was very entertaining. I always enjoy it when a wild animal does something unusual. This was more unusual than most.

I agree with My choice!! Lol this is awesome. He is either smelling something really bad or it is a no no no moment! Lol💙💜

Thank you. As I said in my photo Description, I have no idea what he was doing, but he did this little dance at the same place on every lap around his compound. Weird, but funny.

I THINK HE'S SINGING THE SONG, (STOP IN THE NAME OF LOVE BEFORE YOU BREAK MY HEART.)😁 I LOVE THIS ONE..😁

PRO+

Thank you. I agree - it's the perfect song. His(her?) little dance at that point in each lap around the compound was amazing. Inasmuch as they were largely for the photos of my wife and myself, it is particularly gratifying. Again, I thank you.

Lol awesome capture!

PRO+

Great Photo Steve - love the comments too. I agree - the coatimundi is putting on some kind of performance there:) Super capture!

Thank you, and THANK YOU for all the Awards. The Phoenix Zoo is not very large, but it does have some interesting animals.

very strange behavior , is he in a small place ?

PRO+

Thank you. His enclosure is a good size, but every time he walked around the periphery, he would stop at the same spot and do this little dance. I agree with you: very strange behavior. But it was entertaining.

Never heard of and never saw a Coatimundis before especially dancing or whatever. Interesting shot. Thank you for sharing.
Also, worth mentioning appreciate the military museum photos.

PRO+

Thank you. They are interesting little animals, and this one did that little dance at the same spot every time it walked a lap inside its enclosure.
