The UK Telegraph gallery has 9 pics (coatis!).
Socialite Life has a gallery of 22 pics.
More pics than you can shake a stick at via Google Image Search.

Please share links to anything that has recently surprised, delighted, intrigued or otherwise positively engaged you: think of this thread as a brain-bleach repository. The world needs more unicorn chasers.
