Olingo is a small, nocturnal mammal native to Central and South America. It belongs to the raccoon family and is known for its long, slender body, large eyes, and bushy tail. Olingos are primarily arboreal, meaning they spend most of their time in trees, where they hunt for fruits, insects, and small animals. These creatures are solitary and have a unique vocalization that resembles a series of whistles and growls. Olingos play an important role in their ecosystem by helping to disperse seeds, which contributes to forest regeneration. Their habitat is often threatened by deforestation and habitat loss.
