African Civet (Civetticus Civetta) Due to scarce fossil records‚ the official origin of this species is currently unknown. However the first appearance of viverridae in Europe occurs in the early Oligocene & the Miocene Periods in Africa. Studies also suggest that their skeletal morphology & tooth structure have remained the same for an estimated 40-50 million years. Civets‚ Genets‚ and Linsangs have long‚ sinewy bodies‚ elongated heads with pointed snouts and especially strong claws. Most have shorter
