Striped Palm Civet family feeding on Ficus cucurbitina figs at Deramakot

A family of Bornean Striped Palm Civets feeding in a fruiting Ficus cucurbitina fig tree at Deramakot in July 2020. Note how the civets have enough muscles in their tail to curl them partially around branches as a means of support.

Only two mammals in Borneo have fully prehensile tails, Binturong and Pangolin.

For more information on this amazing fruiting Ficus cucurbitina.
