Some do not eat it for fear that it will transfer its undesirable qualities to anyone who consumes it. [39] However, the animal is also taken for bushmeat ; [ 15 ] a study published in 2009 reported that 57 percent of villages (8 of 14 sampled) in the Makira forest consume fossa meat.
Ring-tailed vontsira are very agile, and good climbers. They are quite playful and are active during the day. Their habitat consists of humid forests. Their diet is mostly of small mammals, invertebrates, fish, reptiles, birds and eggs, but they occasionally eat insects and fruit. [6]
The Malagasy or striped civet (Fossa fossana), also known as the fanaloka (Malagasy, [fə̥ˈnaluk]) or jabady, [5] is an euplerid endemic to Madagascar. [6] It is the only species in genus Fossa . The Malagasy civet is a small mammal , about 47 centimetres (19 in) long excluding the tail (which is only about 20 centimetres (7.9 in)).
The fossa and the Malagasy civet (Fossa fossana) are each evolutionarily quite distinct from each other and from the rest of the clade. All Eupleridae are considered threatened species due to habitat destruction , as well as predation and competition from non-native species .
Far Lands or Bust (abbreviated FLoB) is an online video series created by Kurt J. Mac in which he plays the video game Minecraft.The series depicts his journey to the "Far Lands", a distant area of a Minecraft world in which the terrain generation does not function correctly, creating a warped landscape.
The fossa (Cryptoprocta ferox) is a smaller relative of C. spelea that still survives.. Although some morphological differences between the two fossa species have been described, [17] these may be allometric (growth-related), and in their 1986 Mammalian Species account of the fossa, Michael Köhncke and Klaus Leonhardt wrote that the two were morphologically identical. [18]
Procyonids share common morphological characteristics including a shortened rostrum, absent alisphenoid canals, and a relatively flat mandibular fossa. [4] Kinkajous have unique morphological characteristics consistent with their arboreally adapted locomotion, including a prehensile tail and unique femoral structure.
