I seen one a couple years ago when I was running a trash truck in Payson. It jumped a fence and landed on the can I was about to dump. That was the first one I've seen

I have been fortunate enough to see these little buggers all over the state. I photographed this one in unit 33 a couple of years ago, it was not the least bit afraid of me and waited for me to get my camera out of my pack. I was only about 10 yards from it.

nice pics! I got some video of several coati yesterday in the Pinals. Can't seem to get it loaded onto the computer though, so unfortunately I can't share it at the moment...

Don't know if everyone is aware of it, but as with bats, skunks, foxes and coyotes, rabies is endemic to populations of coatimundis. It's what limits their numbers. If a coati starts getting too friendly, I'd leave.
