Predator Conservation Trust:Yellow Mongoose information: Bush Mongoose:

Cynictis Penicillata
Afrikaans name:
Geelmuishond or Wikkwasmuishond

DESCRIPTION
The Yellow Mongoose is around 40-60 cm in length with a slender tapered tail
of 18-30cm length. In Southern Africa, their
coat is a rich tawny yellow colour with a white tipped tail. In Northern
Botswana they are more grey in colour and lack the white tip to the tail and
they are also slightly smaller.
BEHAVIOUR
Yellow Mongoose are diurnal (mainly active during the day) and are
occasionally active at night. They are highly sociable and live in large troops - typically
between 20 and 50 individuals, but larger troops have been recorded. The
dominant male in the troop marks the troops territory.
