Procyonidae
Bassariscus sumichrasti · Least concern
Its name comes from the Nahuatl language and means half-cat. Secretive and active at night, it is rarely seen anywhere from southern Mexico to western Panama. In Costa Rica it lives in only a very small area. Its tail is as long as its body or longer.

Procyonidae
Procyon cancrivorus · Least concern
Despite its name, the crab-eating raccoon does not live on crabs alone: it also eats frogs, fish, insects, small turtles and their eggs, fruit, nuts and vegetables. And its northern cousin, the common raccoon, happily eats crabs too.

Procyonidae
Potos flavus · Least concern
Honey bear is its nickname, yet the kinkajou is a raccoon relative, from the rainforests of Mexico and Central and South America. Its slender tongue, about 5 in (13 cm) long, scoops the pulp out of soft fruit and licks nectar from flowers, so it may act as a pollinator.
