Taken along the banks of the Lovilombo river. They are both out of their zone. The tail is not tapered like the M bushy tailed, so I am not sure which one it is, it does have some black marks under the eyes like the Genette.I have many trapcam pictures and videos of it but only in black and white. |

Dark, bushy tail, darker legs and ears high on head point towards Aquatic Genet. Way south of distribution area according to Kingdon (2015), page 416 |
