The kinkajou (Potos flavus), is a rainforest mammal and may be mistaken for ferrets or monkeys, but are not related. Sometimes kinkajous are kept as pets, since they are playful, generally quiet and docile, and have no noticeable odor. However, they can occasionally be aggressive. Kinkajous dislike noise and sudden movements and do not like being awake during the day. Becoming agitated a kinkajou may emit a scream and attack, usually clawing and biting deeply, its victim. In El Salvador, micoleón, meaning "lion monkey" are what pet kinkajou's are commonly called. They have a maximum recorded life span of 55 years, kinkajou's live an average of about 23 years in captivity.

How do you make honey clear again?

Honey is a supersaturated sugar solution. Clouding and granulation is a perfectly natural process. There is nothing wrong with the honey, it is just the sugars crystalizing out of the solution. Honeys from certain flowers are particularly prone to crystalisation.To make the honey a clear liquid again, heat it GENTLY by sitting the jar, with the lid loosened, in a bowl of hot water, no hotter than you can bear to keep your hand in. Be careful not to get any water in the honey. Raise the temperature of the honey slowly to a maximum of 60oC (140oF). You may need to keep the honey warm for up to half an hour while the sugar crystals dissolve.Do not use a microwave or the dry heat of an oven or by putting the honey in a saucepan. If you do this you will almost certainly overheat the honey which will partially caramelize the sugars and spoil the flavour, making it taste burnt.
