Gosh I love civets. Granted, I still wish I had more knowledge on them, but they're on my research roster. As of now, I'm working my way through the Viverroidea infraorder (mostly focusing on the civet's cousins, they hyenas and aardwolves). They're anatomy is by far some of the most interesting when it comes to the lumbar spine and tails. I'm so glad someone else likes them too!!
