  • Coati in Chinese Calligraffiti

    长鼻浣熊 -literally Long-nosed bear – is the name for the Coatimundi in Chinese.

    The artist is a true-life Coati bite survivor, and Coati is his tag and the name on his Asian Calligraphy seals (chops).

    Never trust Coatis in Honduras, and never stick your finger out to them if they are in a cage in a random gas station near El Progresso. Remember the long nose?
