danyel09: Certainly not a hyaena which belongs to dog family CANIS. It does not look like a member of cat family FELINE either. But for the size I think it rightly belongs to the rat family RATTUS. Zoologists can help us please. I have not seen this type before, not even in books or films. |

there's no way that animal pictures by the op can be a ocelot because ocelots are not native to Africa, they are only found in south america, parts of north America, central america and mexico |

I know this animal. It has a bad body odour. Very offensive odour especially when on heat period. We call it " ayee" |

firetrap: A civet /ˈs ɪ v ɨ t/ is a small, lithe-bodied, mostly nocturnal mammal native to tropical Asia and Africa, especially the tropical forests. The term civet applies to over a dozen different mammal species. Most of the species diversity is found in southeast Asia. The best-known civet species is the African civet , Civettictis civetta, which historically has been the main species from which was obtained a musky scent used in perfumery. The word civet may also refer to the distinctive musky scent produced by the animals. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civet Don't say what you don't know 2 Likes |

All of you shouting... " Why dem kill am?" Shebi you've checked the internet and found the animal is harmless, thats why you're talking. You expect me to see a snake in my room and wait to find out if its harmless or not? jonzing people! Why are people not killing goats, cats, dogs (even fierce ones) Simply because they know the kind of animal e be. You expect me to see something like this not caged, and i should go near it? If someone has gone near dis thing with a friendly approach and got killed, you same people will start shouting "Why shoulf he go close to such an animal, e resemble dog" 6 Likes |

@Firetrap, you got it right. It is a Genet. However, @op, thank you for the information. There were a couple of guys that also helped to school us on the animal names and world. Thank you all. 1 Like |
