The Panamanian climbing rat is a rodent that climbs trees well. It lives in the tropical forests of Panama and leads a nocturnal lifestyle.
The Panamanian climbing rat differs from ground rats with its long tail and strong legs for tree-dwelling life. It helps the forest by dispersing plant seeds and serves as prey for snakes and birds.
