Overview

The animal behind the card

It is an opportunistic feeder, eating fruit, insects, small vertebrates, carrion, and whatever seasonal resources are available. That flexible diet helps it persist in changing landscapes and also makes it an important seed disperser in many ecosystems.

Historically, civetone from its scent glands was used in perfume production, which contributed to exploitation in some regions. Today, the species is better understood as a key mesopredator and scavenger in African food webs.

Bestiary facts

African civets repeatedly deposit scent at shared marking sites known as civetries.
