I don't think you know much about kinkajous. Kinkajous are aboreal nocturnal animals that are very distant relatives of racoons, but are more closely related to coatis. Their tail is not used as you say, but are used as what is known as a fifth hand (a prehensil tail). They can hang from tree branches like a possum might do. The animal lives though Central and Nothern South America. I has a long 5" tongue that allows to eat nectar from flowers and it also eats the flowers as well as many types of fruits, including figs. That's how figs are propagated throughout the rainforest as the seed are not digested by the kinkajou that eats the figs.
