Common Genet (Genetta genetta), also known as the Small-spotted Genet or European Genet, is a carnivorous mammal, related to civets and linsangs. The most far-ranging of all the eleven species of genet, it can be found throughout Africa, parts of the Middle East, and in Europe in Spain, Portugal, the Balearic Islands, and parts of France. There are also small populations that have escaped from captivity in Germany, Belgium and Switzerland. |
