The red fox (Vulpes vulpes), largest of the true foxes, has the greatest geographic range of all members of the Carnivora family, being present across the entire Northern Hemisphere from the Arctic Circle to North Africa, North America and Eurasia.
The African civet (Civettictis civetta) is the largest representative of the African Viverridae and the sole member of its genus. It is considered common and widely distributed in sub-Saharan Africa.
The common genet (Genetta genetta), also known as Small-spotted Genet, is a small viverrid indigenous to Africa that was introduced to southwestern Europe and the Balearic Islands. Genetta genetta is widely distributed north of the Sahara, in savanna zones south of the Sahara to southern Africa and along the coast of Arabia, Yemen and Oman. It has also been recorded in Germany, Belgium and Switzerland.
