The Malay civet's tail is black above and ringed on the lower side. Their upperparts are greyish with numerous black spots and about 15 black bands in the tail.
tropical heath forest, 1000m
This civet came at night to eat some rice my guide put out at Nepenthes camp in Maliau basin. I was relaxing on the second level of the camp when my guide came up to me and asked if I wanted to see something. Well, of course I did! He shined his flashlight to the ground and we watched the civet. It wasn't bothered by the light and is probably a regular visitor to the camp.
