Asian Mongoose

The Asian mongoose, also recognized as the Indian gray mongoose, thrives as a species native to South and Southeast Asia, with prominent presence in Thailand's forests and grasslands. Sporting a long, slender body and a bushy tail, it can reach lengths of approximately 24 inches. Nocturnal in nature, its activity typically unfolds between dusk and dawn. The Asian mongoose plays an essential role in the Thai ecosystem, contributing to the control of small rodent populations.
