IITDIAN FASADOXUBE, OR PALM-CAT. This graceful animal is about the size of the ordinary house Cat. It is an eager hunter of birds and 



small mammals but is also very fond of pineapples, bananas and other fruits and coffee berries, and is therefore very destructive to the plantations of India 

 and the-Malay Peninsula, where it is found. The handsome head and spotted fur are well depicted here, and its long tail is a prominent characteristic and 

 can be curled by the animal at will, upward as well as downward. The animal in the lower foreground is feeding on small fruit while the other on the tree is 

 Testing and watching. (Paradoxurus niger.)
