The Abyssinian Genet is known from fewer than 20 museum specimens and had not been collected for 60 years until 2016, when researchers trapped and collected a specimen in the Foret de Day in southern Djibouti. Our group may have been the first to photograph a live specimen in the wild. Notice the gorgeous stripes on the back of the animal.

Congratulations Alex!
Apart from being the "king" of Zoochat, now improving in registering excepcional rare animals without know good photos like the Abyssinian Genet!
