This beautiful nocturnal carnivore is already turning heads with her sleek, spotted coat and impressive agility. Native to Africa and parts of Europe, genets are expert climbers with long tails that help them balance in the treetops. Tess is no exception - she’s a natural hunter, using her sharp eyesight and hearing to track down prey. She’s settling in wonderfully here at Africa Alive and we can’t wait for you to see her in action!
