South American Creature Found In Texas

From a local NBC Affiliate (WCSH6):

JOHNSON COUNTY, Tex. (NBC) -- Officials are trying to figure out how an exotic animal from the rain forests of South America ended up in a North Texas neighborhood.

The kinkajou, a tree dwelling, fruit eating animal native to the jungles of Central and South America, was captured as he tried to get into a home in Johnson County.

The animal is in now in the custody of the Humane Society of North Texas and is being treated by an exotic animal specialist while they try to track down its owner.

Here's another picture of a kinkajou (looking more vicious than they actually are):
