@Sokee@wombat146 Thank you.. yes me too .. never heard or saw until we saw him at the zoo.. this is what the zoo says about them: Binturong
We have four binturongs: males Rungus and Tasik, and females Suzy and Bee.
Sometimes called Asian bearcats, binturongs are not related to bears or cats; some people just thought they looked like a combination of the two animals. They are arboreal, and about half of their four to six foot body length is a long prehensile tail they use to help them climb through the trees. In the wild, they can be found in the upper tree canopy in rainforests in China, Indonesia, the Philippines and India. Binturong are omnivorous, eating fruit, leaves, small mammals, birds, invertebrates, carrion and eggs.
