March 20 (UPI) -- The Nashville Zoo announced the birth of a rare spotted fanaloka, a Mdagascar-native species also known as the Malagasy civet.
The zoo, which is the only facility in the United States to keep fanalokas, said the male pup was born March 10 and does not yet have a name.
The zoo previously welcomed the birth of a female fanaloka, named Pepite, about two years ago. She was the first of her species to be born at the zoo and among the first to be born in the country.
The new arrival is being hand-reared by zookeepers and can be seen by the public in the facility's veterinary center.
Do they make good coffee?
Wrong country.....................π€’
How much tax payer money spent on this foreign critter that could have been spent on our border infestation?
I think I do too. Do they stink? Musky smell?
The zoo, which is the only facility in the United States to keep fanalokas, said the male pup was born March 10 and does not yet have a name.
"Nashville is the capital and most populous city in the U.S. state of Tennessee and the county seat of Davidson County."

"Nashville has a vibrant music and entertainment scene spanning a variety of genres. With a long history in the music scene it is no surprise that city was nicknamed 'Music City.' "

I wonder what they'll name the scrappy lil tyke. Could be interesting.
Tastes kinda like spotted owl.
It missed out on one other unique birth: a primate actually birthed through an anal canal who eventually became a U.S. Representative out of Memphis.
LOL. HE IS A TOTAL IDIOT. I VOTED FOR BERGMAN when I lived there, but got out 16 yrs ago. It’s worse now.
