@Degbeme I had to carry her away from the anthill because she was getting dirty and can’t have a bath today because she just got her flea medication yesterday

Well, 50 calories and a load of formic acid later...little Maple is VERY happy!
She always looks so soft

@Bexsy she is being so cuddly today. She’s lounging beside me right now
@itsok that's the sweetest thing 😍

Giant anteaters have a low metabolism and, for maintenance, require approximately 347 kJ (about 83 kcal) of digestible energy per kilogram of body weight (
) per day. For a 40 kg adult, this translates to a daily intake of roughly 124 kcal DE/kg
to maintain weight, with up to 30,000 ants consumed daily
