Ant-eaters are perhaps the most curious-looking animals. Their long head and
snout look like tubes, and they have no teeth.
Their front legs are very strong and armed with heavily curved claws with which
they break open the nets of ants and termites and then, when the insects rush
out, use their long, sticky tongues to lick them up at great speed.
True ant-eaters are found in the swamps and forests of Central and South
America. Scaly ant-eaters, or pangolins, are found in Africa and tropical Asia.
