Description
This friendly little fella is a Banded Mongoose, Mungos mungo. These are the most common mongooses in my region, easily seen in many savannah and woodland regions. Banded mongooses are about 1.5 kg/3.3 lbs in bodyweight, so about half the size of an average cat. They are among the most social of all carnivorous animals, typically banding together in troops of 5 to 50 or more. They are very vocal and chatter to each other as they go about the day's business. They will stand together to chase away predators, and also share baby-raising duties. Watercolour.
