Description: Part of the Zoo Kingdom collection, this desert anteater was created by Zoogirl. Recolour of the Giant Anteater. Released originally in August 2003.

Updated September 2008: Changed by fern to remove the wolf info from the animal info since this is not a wolf, to remove unused files from the ".ztd", to make the ".ztd" smaller by linking to the ingame sound directly instead of using a copy of the sound, to have the sound work as often as the ingame anteater, to remove unnecessary lines from the configuration, to have the animal like itself, to correct its name, and to make the foliage tooltips appear for the female and young.

Desert Anteater

Giant anteaters are primarily found in the savannahs and grasslands of Central
and South America. These animals are gray with distinctive black and white
markings, and their narrow bodies are about the size of a large dog. Anteaters
are covered in coarse hair, which helps to protect them from insect bites.
Anteaters lack teeth and their jaws can only open half an inch. Their chief
distinguishing characteristic is an extremely long, cylindrical snout, which
the anteater thrusts directly into ant and termite colonies when searching for
food.
