The anteater's nose is often referred to as a "snout." This elongated snout houses a long tongue, which can extend up to 16 inches to help anteaters reach deep into ant and termite mounds for feeding. The specialized structure of their snout allows them to efficiently capture their prey while minimizing the risk of injury from their food sources.
