Description

When: August 5, 2018

Where: Zie-ZOO Volkel, The Netherlands


Yellow Mongooses are really quite fun and beautiful, but in the right light, they become that much more stunning

They share their enclosure with Crested Porcupines which have been procreating like crazy. Because they're aggressively protective of their babies, the Yellow Mongooses haven't been allowed outside as much. Seeing them is a real treat, you can imagine.


Species: Yellow Mongoose (Gele of vosmangoeste)

Latin name: Cynictis Penicillata

Originates from Southern Africa.

Current status: Least Concern.

Haha, yeah he kind of does!

And that even though he's not an herbivore or ungulate.
