Meet Nacho and Salsa, Our Coatis

Nacho and Salsa

Long noses. Ringed tails. Endless energy.

This month’s Animal Spotlight shines on Nacho and Salsa — a mischievous brother and sister combo that never seems to sit still. Coatis are intelligent, social animals known for their playful antics and endlessly inquisitive personalities.

Whether they’re scurrying along their branches, or hanging acrobatically from the ceiling, they are a favorite among both staff and guests alike.

Coati

Coatis are native to the forests of Central and South America, regions that are home to some of the most fascinating wildlife on Earth. From colorful parrots and sloths to monkeys, tapirs, and coatis, these ecosystems are bursting with incredible biodiversity.

If these remarkable animals inspire your sense of adventure, Wild Ecotours — our travel subsidiary — offers unforgettable journeys to Costa Rica, where guests can experience tropical wildlife and rainforest ecosystems firsthand. It’s an incredible opportunity to see the natural world that animals like Nacho and Salsa call home. And, in fact, we saw coatis in the wild on our last trip!
