Mugged by a Coati

Iguaçu National Park advises visitors not to feed or touch the coatis.  Little did I know that the coatis would take matters into their own hands (literally)!  During our walk in Iguaçu National Park, we purchased a can of Coca-Cola.  I set the can down on a nearby bench to take a picture of Paul.  In an instant, a coati stood up on his hind legs and picked up my can of coke with his hand-like paws and ran as fast as he could.  I shouted "NO!" and all of the onlookers laughed!  The coati are cute little animals, but they are  thieves as well!  This is not the only incident of visitors mugged by coatis. 
Here's the picture I took of Paul after I was mugged by a coati.
