Carnivore Discovery Olinguito Looks Like Cross between Cat and Teddy Bear.

A new species of carnivore has been discovered by scientists - and it looks like a cross between a house cat and a teddy bear.
Scientists at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC said the olinguito was the first species of carnivore to be discovered in the western hemisphere for 35 years, explaining that the olinguito had been the victim of mistaken identity for over 100 years.
It is the latest scientifically documented member of the family Procyonidae, which includes raccoons, coatis and kinkajous.
The olinguito weighs 2lbs, has large eyes, woolly orange-brown fur and lives in the cloud forests of Colombia and Ecuador. Scientists said their discovery was "incredibly rare" for the 21^st century.
