Patron Saint of Critters. Technically you are specifically the Patron Saint of Tetrapods, but only zoologists say it that way.

So so true <3

Have a scribble of a random tetrapod, a banded palm civet

Animal of the Day!

Banded Palm Civet (Hemigalus derbyanus)

(Photo from National Geographic)

Conservation Status- Near Threatened

Habitat- Southeast Asia

Size (Weight/Length)- 4.5 kg; 70 cm

Diet- Insects; Small mammals; Fruit

Cool Facts- Despite living on a chain of islands in Southeast Asia, the banded palm civet has a relatively stable population. Moving away from the forests due to deforestation, these palm civets are turning in the Asian version of the raccoon, successfully living in towns alongside humans. The wilder banded palm civets live deep in the jungles, spending most of their time on the ground. They aren’t fully made for climbing due to not having a prehensile tail or claws made for climbing. They prefer to eat insects and meat, but this civet will take any opportunity to eat, including fruit.

Rating- 11/10 (Don’t stripes just make things cooler?!)

The banded palm civet is a rare, mainly carnivorous viverrid native to Myanmar, peninsular Malaysia, peninsular Thailand, and the Indonesian islands of Sipura, Sumatra and Borneo.

Civets as well a Genets are very fascinating, adorable creatures. Genets actually make good pets. These animals are feline-like in appearance, either carnivorous or omnivorous, but are not related to actual felines. They are nocturnal and rest in tress, rock crevices, and empty burrows. Civets and Genets are usually solitary. 

“The vocal African palm civet spends most of it’s time the forest canopy, where it feeds chiefly on the fruits of trees and vines and occasionally on small animals and birds. All other species of pine civets are confined to the forests of Asia. They are skillful climbers, aided by their sharp, curved, retractable claws, usually naked soles, and partly fused third and fourth toe, which strengthen the  grasp of the hindfeet” (Mcdonald pg. 124). 

The fossa is a species of Civet that is found only in Madagascar. They have long tails which help with climbing as well as keeping their balance when hunting in the treetops. They look a lot like a big cat. They take up the niches that lions, tigers, or other feline apex predators would because there are no feline species native to the island. They are much closer related to mongooses than actual felines. Even so, they have retractable claws, akin to those of a feline. They can potentially grow up to six feet long and weigh 26 pounds.

Sulawesis or Great or Brown palm civets have webbed, flexible feet. In Southeast Asian forests, there are five species of banded palm civets and otter civets. Banded palm civets eat lizards, frogs, rats, crabs, snails, earthworms, and ants. Owson’s banded civet mainly eats invertebrates. Hose’s palm resembles the banded palm civet in body but has a differing head shape. Otter civets have shorter rounded ears, a thinner pointier muzzle, a more compact body, and a shorter tail. African civets live in all habitats on the continent. Indian civets are smaller than Indian civets and eat small mammals and birds, stalking prey like a cat. They also scavenge and eat eggs.

Binturongs or bearcats have been reported to swim in rivers and catch fish. They resemble a combination of bears and cats but are not ursine or feline. Their long, fluffy tails sometimes serve as a fifth hand. They can potentially live up to 20 years. They are found in forests throughout Southeast Asia. Unfortunately, they are a vulnerable species due to habitat destruction. 

Binturongs are thought to be the most closely related to palm civets. They are generally solitary and nocturnal, like most civets. They are generally shy animals, and hard to spot, especially due to their endangered status. The habitat loss has been worse in the southern range of territory. They rely on thick, dense forests for shelter and safety.

Banded Palm Civet Hemigalus Derbyanus

The banded palm civet is a rare species of civet found in the tropical forests across south-east Asia. Banded palm civets were named for their tan and black striped coats which give the banded palm civet more camouflage in the surrounding jungle.

Oh no y'all. I finished the His Dark Materials show yesterday and now I have a bad idea. I want to give all my Flight Rising dragons daemons. Or unearth old character and give them daemons. Either way I want daemons somewhere in my various worlds and headcanons. This is gonna be such a time-waster but I'm gonna have so much fun with it

#for the record my own personal daemon is a banded palm civet #i havent named him but i have a figurine i used to carry around #he sits on my nightstand now #if i do the fr thing they wont replace familiars #bc familiars are pets in my headcanon
