| | The Pizote and The Lion |
 | | Closely related to pizotes are the raccoons, olingos and kinkajous, the former being both terrestrial and arboreal like the pizote and the latter two found strictly in the tree tops. |
 | | Soon giving into the strain, the pizote would typically swivel its hind feet upward, grasp the sides of the trunk with rear claws and descend head first, leaving the fruit only partially eaten and making room for another to scramble up and take its turn. |
 | | Then suddenly all the pizotes disappeared from the area, leaving the tree with plenty of wild papaya which ripened and rotted on the tree. |
