HOLY SHIT! THAT ANIMAL IS SUPPOSED TO BE EXTENCT. That Looks Like A Thylacine.. "The thylacine also commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger or Tasmanian wolf, is an extinct species of carnivorous marsupial that was native to the Australian". SAVE IT FROM THE DOGS IF POSSIBLE. WOW😲

It is called a "Civet." Civets are nocturnal, solitary mammals related to mongooses, known for their raccoon-like masks and bushy tails, using a strong musk from scent glands for territory marking, with species like the African civet being omnivorous generalists eating insects,..

Looks like an African raccoon

Civets, people are really looking for it in Nigerian, I’ve gotten like 5 calls in December alone all wanting to know if I still have civet cubs. Why? A hunter fhat lives close to my base brought 5 cubs home in 2023, I bought them from him and sold them online, since then, I can’t stop the calls for more and I don’t know how to take down the ad on the marketplace

A close relative of the animal in South Africa is called genet. It is nocturnal and once killed 30 chickens on our farm in one night!

Why do we always thinking about klllng animals? Is it that we don't have food to eat?

Please allow that beautiful Civet to go home..

@grok kindly inform us.

🤬 Humans are the 🤬 worst, can you imagine any other creature killing shit because they didn’t know what it was. I’ve known spear fishermen and surfers and sometimes you see things in the ocean that they don’t know what we are, can you imagine them attacking for that reason.

First reaction to something that we don't know is to destroy it, why?

Lack of education.... this moron trying to kill it .. religious are funny people.

African civet, a very basic cat-like

Civet Cat. They produce a smelly substance which is used in making ouds and perfumes. They are rare at the moment in Africa but some people raise them as commercial farmers in South East Asia.

I hope this African fuck dies

Unbelievable, poor animal didn’t have a chance.

So a mongoose but with extra steps?

It looks like it’s sick. It’s not supposed to be outside at this time and is to fatigued to fight back or run. I don’t believe in eating bush meat but for those that do you should avoid eating sick ones. He might even be rabid

Whatever it is it seems like it was minding its damn business tryna walk the beach. It wasn’t aggressive at all during the whole encounter.

Burukenge in kiswahili

Civet

@grok what is that animal?

I don't know but take your dogs and leave it the fuk alone because you are clearly bothering it

You’re allowing your dogs to be bitten by that animal until they contact rabbis and bring it to your house

Civets

This looks like a Civet cat. The rate at which they are killed especially in Nigeria is quite alarming and if nothing is done to protect them I reckon they might go extinct in the next 30-50 years.

Civet - ẹtà in Yoruba

Leave the animal

Dude is yelling Mashallah, what God has willed. Supposed to be admiring God's creation but is beating it. May God judge you and judge you harshly

that’s a prairie dog

That animal is good with rice.

Two German shepherds old model and African sea lion

Dogs and Civet cat👌

So nobody is able to identify this animal? Meaning it's an endangered species. They must be rare in the world. The other day a white dude found an endangered species in the wild, took pictures and documented the animal bt refused to give out its location for its own safety
