Coatimundi Coatis Female & Male Skulls replicas are museum quality polyurethane resin castings made in USA. 2-part skull (separate cranium and jaw).
The South American coati (Nasua nasua), also known as the ring-tailed coati, is a coati species and a member of the raccoon family (Procyonidae), found in the tropical and subtropical parts of South America.
An adult generally weighs from 4.4 to 15.9 lb. and is 33 to 44 in. long, with half of that being its tail.
Its color is highly variable and the rings on the tail may be only somewhat visible, but its most distinguishing characteristic is that it lacks the largely white snout (or “nose”) of its northern relative, the white-nosed coati.
The South American coati is widespread in tropical and subtropical South America. It occurs in the lowland forests east of the Andes as high as 8,200 ft. from Colombia and The Guianas south to Uruguay and northern Argentina.
Nasua nasua occupancy is significantly and negatively related to elevation but positively related to forest cover. It has been recorded in west Ecuador, and north and west Colombia. In Argentina, it has been recorded in Santa Fe and Salta Provinces.
The only documented records of white-nosed coati in South America are from far northwestern Colombia, in the Gulf of Urabá region, near the Colombian border with Panama.
The smaller mountain coati lives foremost at altitudes above the South American coati, but there is considerable overlap.
It has been introduced and naturalized on the island of Mallorca, where it is considered an invasive species.
