Honey Bear is a lesser kinkajou meaning smaller in stature then the greater kinkajou. Her name, Honey Bear is another name for the animal itself. They are referred to as kinkajous or honey bears. She is tiny and delicate and part of the Procyonidae or raccoon family. She is sweet which isn’t normal for most kinkajous as they are nocturnal or night dwelling by nature. Normally, waking up a nocturnal animal in the middle of the day even for a snack would make them a little cranky. I am pretty sure she is an optimist and has a little bit of sunshine in her soul. She lives with her adopted daughter, Luna, who was also a privately owned pet looking for a permitted forever home. She took to mothering like a fish take to swimming but I am afraid her shining personality was not adopted by Luna as her attitude and nickname are one and the same, Luna the Lunatic. She hates to be disturbed if the sun is out and like a vampire will attack you if you try to enter her enclosure after dark. This is actually a much more normal attitude for the average kinkajou. Funny that they are sold as pets in the pet trade as they are pretty grumpy by nature.
