A marsupilami is a (debatingly) fictionous animal that made it's first appearance in a French comicbook/magazine, which exists in the sub-country of Polombia, which is also known as the Amazonas territory of Brazil, South America. The name of the animal was intended to mean "marsupial friend", even though it is techneckly a momostreme (the kind of mammal that lays eggs). The creature is teasingly refured to as the "little animal", even though it displays great strength when it needs it most, and in considered to be the gaurdian species of the jungle/rain-forest and must be treated with respect, so odds are, it might've been named after the spanish phrase: Mar su pilla amistad (Tide it's crafty friendship).

The species has the likeness of a monkey in structure, except the tail much longer... 7 yards, last anyone checked (the tails of the female is a tad shorter, though still ridiculously long compared to other animals), and such a tail has the capability to be tied and shaped into anything it sees fit. Aside from the tail, the marsupilami is about 1 1/2 feet tall... the females seem taller for they walk tiptoe, as though wearing invisable high-heel shoes. It has eight fingers on each hand, and toes to match for that matter, and it's dog-like with it's large black nose and floppy ears that stick straight up, unless they droop in misery. They have large eyes, and he males of the species have their eyes closer together then females. Though there are some of them that are born solid colors (a total of eight species), the most famed fur coloration is that of a cheetah: yellow with black spots, though the spots are closer to the polkadot look then a cheetah.

Sounds

They are known for their unmistakable sounds, which not only distinguish the presence of a marsupilami, but it's gender as well: The males are noted for going "Houba" (pronounced HOO Bah) and the females sound more like "Houbi" (HOO Bee). Even the hatchings are known to already vocally noting themselves with shorter verison of there gender: "Bi" and "Bo" (some baby boys even say "bu", pronounced: BOO). However, the marsupilami, much like parrots and other exotic birds, are known for imitating the sounds they hear, even from the opposite gender, so while the main calls are distinctive, they often mix the sounds together into there own primal, yet effective language... that's how at least one of them learned to talk like a human!
