Narrow-striped mongoose
The narrow-striped mongoose (''Mungotictis decemlineata'') is a member of the family Eupleridae, subfamily Galidiinae and endemic to Madagascar. It inhabits the dry deciduous forests of western and southwestern Madagascar, where it lives from sea level to about between the Tsiribihina and Mangoky rivers. In Malagasy it is called ''boky-boky'' (pronounced "Boo-ky Boo-ky").
==Ecology and behavior==
The narrow-striped mongoose is diurnal and lives in matriarchal family groups that practice cooperative rearing of young. Usually, the young of the alpha female will get the most care, and often the lower ranking females' young is neglected to the point of abandonment. The narrow-striped mongoose creates small nests in trees and brush, and has been known to share trees with ''Lepilemur'' species, with which it apparently has little or no interaction. Results of a few studies suggest that the narrow-striped mongoose is primarily insectivorous, but eats also bird eggs and a variety of small animals including rodents, birds, snakes, and even small lemur species such as the gray mouse lemur.〔
