A new one to me also (reminds me of our wolverine). Thanks for sharing.
It's a shame we are gradually losing such fabulous creatures...
Wow! That is great information. Thanks for sharing. Hope to see it in India someday.
They sure are. Shame I only get to see them in captivity. According to Wiki, "the Binturong can make chuckling sounds when it seems to be happy".
Lovely animal.
Meet the Palawan Bearcat. Shy furry fellows. They look more amazing in person. :)
A new mammal to me.
