In 2007,a young Argentine zookeeper who worked on a giant anteater conservation project died after she was attacked by an anteater who mauled her abdomen and legs with its sharp front claws.
Their size is about 6 ft. long (including the mop-top tail)on average .
Even if I'm light enough,their back are not adapting to ride.
They are not livestock like a cow or a sheep. They don't carry like an elephant or a camel. They don't do tricks or lifesaving. That is, it is not a convenient living thing for man.
Their big and sharp claw can tear up even a jaguar(their natural predator).So, too dangerous for a pet.
I do...observe their extraordinary life at zoological garden.
Can't a pet anteater just have it's claw cut off?

In fact,baby anteater can piggyback on mother.
The "dangerous" sharp claw makes it possible.

If you were small and light enough would they be ideal for riding on?
How big are they again?
Would they really be dangerous as a pet? They don't look very aggressive at all.

I don't know what they're like. What would they do to you? Or what do we use these things for?
They appear very random if that makes any sense.

Hmmm...perhaps elephants may be relative.
They have so much in common.
Classification is no more than an arrangement between scientists.
Do with...what?

Does the "Xenarthra" order include elephants?
What would you do with an anteater?

Motion of head, a bodily pattern and the figure that walks...all are cute and funny.
Reason why?...I don't know.
Armadillo and sloth is in same order "Xenarthra".
