They look like miniature dinos and even ransack wharehouses in coordinated heists.

Coati Mundi is adorable as well
Must be copyrighted? Anyway he was the percussionist with Kid Creole & The Coconuts also played guitar and flute.
On youtube use the search terms kid creole paris to see him in action with the whole band in the 80s

They pillage campsites in Arizona. Fortunately they haven’t learned how to use fire, but they can overrun and trash a campground every effectively.

Visited Mexico for a wedding in January. Saw a troop of them crossing the access road for the condos where we stayed; mistook them at first for monkeys until a local corrected me. They lived in the bush just off the parking area. Strange chuckling calls.
