There is such a creature that resembles a miniature version of a mountain lion and sometimes looks like a dog. He has an extra-long beard, even as long as his head, and two large round ears on the top of his head. Although it is very similar to cats, he can leap through the woods, he is the Horse Island Badger, the Horse Island is madagascar, it is said to be the badger of Madagascar, this creature is called the strongest carnivore in the Horse Island, so how strong is his combat effectiveness? Let's take a look.
In 1996, a zoologist named Dora met the creature in a national park in Madagascar and named it fossa, and she observed that the creature could jump rapidly and repeatedly on branches, its long tail was able to maintain balance, and he was no less flexible than animals such as monkeys, and in daily predation, he won by skill, usually feeding on birds or mammals. So primates such as monkeys are his favorite food. The Experience of the Horse Island Badger is the most exuberant, he will choose a certain time period, day or night according to his habits, his whereabouts are haunted, whether day or night, he is the most hidden killer. Although he has a strong fighting power, it is very inconsistent with his figure.
The Horse Island Badger looks like a miniature version of the cougar in appearance, so his nickname is also called the Little American Lion, and if you look at one organ of the body alone, he has a dog mark on him, so his animal subject is neither a dog nor a cat. He is short in stature, but his muscles are very developed, with an average weight of 5 to 10 kg and a shoulder blade height of about 80 cm. Males who conform to nature's common sense are larger than females. He was covered with thick brown short hairs that shone brightly on his skin as the sun shone. He is one of the best kings among animals of this size, but you wouldn't have thought that this creature had no natural enemies.
The Falklands live on the island of Madagascar, because the mainland is separated, so the island is isolated from the rest of the world, there are no large predators on this island, he has no natural enemies, so almost all the creatures on the island have become the food of the Majima badger. Whether it is a bird flying in the sky, a skinny beast running on the ground, or a fish swimming in the water, it will become his meal, and because there is no competition from the same species of animals, the Falklands do whatever they want on this isolated island. But this creature has a reclusive personality and has lived alone for most of his life. Only in the short period of mating will they be paired or gathered in groups. There is a little bit of a lone killer meaning, lonely but noble. The killer is a bit cold and territorial, they mark their territory with their own scents, and there are very few cases of attacks between the same kind, except during the mating season.
Ferocious animals also have a cute side, the horse island badger newborn weighs only 100 grams, and it takes 15 days to open your eyes to the world. At 15 to 20 months of maturity, they will leave their mothers to start their wandering lives. At first, it lived comfortably with them, although it had no natural enemies, but when humans set foot on the island, its number began to decrease wildly. It's not just that they were hunted by humans, whose dogs and wild animals brought rabies to the island and they began to be threatened by the disease.
The Falklands, who used to dominate the islands, are now facing the danger of genocide, and they themselves would not have thought that even if there were no natural enemies, the comfortable and comfortable life they had today's tragic situation, so living in an overly comfortable environment is sometimes not a fortunate thing, and being born in distress and dying in comfort is the survival concept that every creature should have.
