Malagasy Carnivores - Brown-tailed Vontsira

Brown-tailed Vontsira/Brown-tailed Mongoose  (Salanoia concolor)

Main-illustration of my bachelor thesis about Malagasy Carnivores (Eupleridae). The more common name "Brown-tailed Mongoose" is said to be antiquated, since this animal isn't closely related to the real Mongoose-family (Herpestidae).
