Anteater Pet

+ Genus Protamandua (fossil)
The Anteaters are more closely related to the sloths than they are to any other group of mammals, even to the armadillos, their next closest relations. There are three genera still living: the Giant Anteater, the Silky Anteater, and the Northern and Southern Tamandua anteaters, but there are also several extinct genera.
