SINGAPORE - The Singapore Zoo's latest exhibit features a pair of fossas , an animal that many may draw comparisons to a cat, dog or mongoose.
A fossa has a cat-like head, short, dog-like muzzle and ears, as well as a slender body and muscular limbs. Solitary animals by nature, the two fossas will share their new exhibit in the zoo on a rotational basis, added the park operator. "Conducting this training regularly allows the animal care team to get up close to the animal for medical check-ups and performing simple treatment procedures," said WRS in response to queries.
Varus was brought to the Singapore Zoo on May 25, 2018, while Kabibi arrived on Sept 27, 2018. They were quarantined forone month and were then moved to dens until their exhibit was completed.
