Hello,

I get mailordered sets of animal cards, I get 3 sets every month
with various animals in them, animals, fish, birds, insects, things
like that, and every time I open the packages, it does not take me
long to find an animal I do not know of, I look at the picture and the
name and say

"A What?"

So....... I figured it would be neat and sort of fun to scan these
animals and send them to all Y'all! and see how you do!
If this is a stupid idea, oh well, I tried! of course I can only go
by the information on the cards so if I have been misinformed of a
particular animal, let me know K! ;)

Enjoy! if you like I can do the same for insects, fish and birds! :)

Russ

That animal looks like a skunk not a Ratel.

The honey badger or ratel (Mellivora capensis) is the only species in the mustelid subfamily Mellivorinae and its only genus Mellivora. It is native to Africa, Southwest Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. Despite its name, the honey badger does not closely resemble other badger species; instead, it bears more anatomical similarities to weasels.

No question about it - this is a honey badger, Mellivora capensis, and not a skunk. See my website, www.badgers.org.uk/badgerpages
