How to recognize the common genet:

Common genets are slender carnivores that have spotty patches of black hairs that from the shoulders to the tails of their bodies. The rest of the body is covered by tan to brownish colored fur and often has a white tipped tail that also features 8 to 13 black rings. Some additional features are rather large heads, retractable claws, rounded ears, and white patches beneath their eyes (Arkive Organization, 2013). To read more visit Form & Function!
