The "cutest" animal from the amazon is probably the lemur; it is a primate that I think is only two inches long, barely the size of a large thumb. Then there is also the armadillo, but you can find some here, specifically, the deep south. Also, generally, armadillo is not exactly classified as "cute."

Well, there are pink dolphins, though they aren't exclusively Colombian as the swim in the Amazon river.

If you want a Colombian, check for frogs. Colombia is home of the most dangerous frog in the word (Guinness Book of Records) It can only be found in Colombia.
