Solanum with a fallen fruit with bitemarks (perhaps not ripe?). Maned wolf tracks surround it, and this fruit occurs in about 1 in 5 maned wolf scats in this pampa.
Giant anteater encounter. I was on the road that crosses the Los Fierros pampa, and stood still when it emerged from the vegetation, apparently undetected. The photo down the road, with just the tail visible, illustrates why a common name in Spanish is 'oso bandera.' The photo of a track is not from this sighting, but in the same area.
Location approximate.
Curious eye-catching bug at Los Fierros camp.
Fat basking rattlesnake on the Los Fierros pampa road. Rattle visible. Very happy that I did not see/step on one while working offroad in the pampa.
Location approximate.
Previously Callithrix argentata melanura, Callithrix melanura.
