I would assume you're educated... does these cats look like the cats to kill a human even at night...?! now you shamelessly parade them on nairaland... you'll def get Frontpage... I hope you're happy now...

People neglects the roles these cats play in the ecosystem... get rid of all the cats... then see how rats population would sky rocket...

I wonder how people can get tired of goat meat, cow meat, fish, chicken and Turkey... only to start eating endangered species and they think they are savvy...

It would have been lovely... if you educated the hunters... but again... what do you know...?!
It's disheartening to see how ignorant Nigerians hunt down these wild animals that are becoming extinct for meat.

A little part of me dies whenever I see humans wiping out important species all in the guise of hunting. @op do you ever wonder why you spotted them in your house, their habitats are being destroyed on a daily basis by humans; they might actually have been scavenging for food near your compound in order to survive.
I hope we all get to become enlightened and know each species play an important role in the continuous existence of the ecosystem.

They look harmless to humans. I wouldn't care if was a snake but c'mon now, it's not every wild thing we see we bludgeon to death.
They also feed on rats, snakes and frogs mainly.

Homeboy205 I think you are foolish. You should be ashamed of your self.
It's an endangered species, I know you didn't do the killing, but you ought to be wiser.

even in 2016, we still have a high rate of ignorance among us, why do we take so much pride in killing innocent species whiteout understanding them, a male and a female, this is heartless, they may have been looking for food and shelter, so sad.

African Civet Predators and Threats Despite being a secretive yet a relatively ferocious predator , the African Civet is actually preyed upon by a number of other predators within their natural environment. Large predatory Cats are the most common predators of the African Civet including Lions and Leopards along with reptiles such as large Snakes and Crocodiles . African Civet populations are also under threat from both habitat loss and deforestation, and have been subject to trophy hunters in the past, across the continent. One of the biggest threats to the African Civet is the want for their musk.
African Civet Interesting Facts and Features The musk secreted by the glands close to the African Civet's reproductive organs has been collected by Humans for hundreds of years. In it's concentrated form, the smell is said to be quite offensive to people, but much more pleasant once diluted. It was this scent that became one of the ingredients in some of the most expensive perfumes in the world (and made the African Civet a well-known African animal). African Civets are known to carry the rabies disease, which is contracted through contact with an already infected animal . The African Civet is also known to use designated areas around it's territory, where it is able to go to the toilet.
African Civet Relationship with Humans Each African Civet secretes up to 4g of musk every week, which is normally collected from African Civets in the wild. However, the capturing and keeping of African Civets for their musk is not unknown and is said to be an incredibly cruel industry. Today, few perfumes still contain actual musk from the glands of an African Civet as many scents today are easily reproduced artificially. Although it is a protected yet not an endangered animal , the African Civet populations have also been severely affected by Human hunters, who hunt these little carnivores to simply add their skin to the trophy cabinet.
African Civet Conservation Status and Life Today Today, the African Civet is under threat from deforestation and therefore drastic loss of much of it's natural habitat . The main reason for such extensive deforestation in the area is either for logging or to clear the land to make way for palm oil plantations. The African Civet is listed as being Least Concern, which means that there is little threat at the moment that the African Civet will become extinct in the near future.

U sounded like someone who makes sense. But truth be told, these are not ur ordinary cats, I would panic when I see those and I know u will definitely panic too. Only a zoologist or someone who knows about wildlife would know if they are not harmful or not. If I find these in my backyard and I have the opportunity of killing them I will kill them before they hurt any member of my family. Better I kill an endegesred specie than let the cat hurt my little ones just because I want to preserve an endegesred specie.

There are snakes that are not harmful, but the first thing on my mind if I see a snake in my backyard is to kill it whether it is harmful or not. Am I a zoologist that I would differentiate a harmful snake from a non hsrmful one. Let me guess, so when I see a snake in my backyard I should first call the authorities to come and determine whether it is harmful or not, or whether it is endegeared specie or not. Oga leave science, let's face facts. This is real life.

These cats are wild and are in danger to the public .Stop acting westernised ,the govt doesn't have any wild life or conservation personnel to curb the activities of the wild cat .
Same thing about the lion that was killed ,the only sane thing about the killing of the lion is that it was killed by people it should have killed

Some of us see to many Hollywood flicks and always tend to forget dis is Africa. Most of us are quick to lambast others and form nonsense online. Yes in an organised society animal welfare would have been contacted but is dis an organized society Are our zoos in an encouraging state talk more of having an animal welfare services. Someone kills a snake or any animal at dat an most people com online screaming blue murder but u have no problems buying a snake skin bag or fur coat. Maybe most of u have no idea hunting still goes on in the rural areas of even the developed countries. What would u people have d @OP do? Try and capture the animals alive and then what?? Abeg make una let pesin hear word. It's a wild cat and as such should remain in the wild.
