Striped polecat

The striped polecat (''Ictonyx striatus'', also called the African polecat, zoril, zorille, zorilla, Cape polecat, and African skunk) is a member of the Mustelidae family (weasels), though in actuality, it somewhat resembles a skunk. The name "zorilla" comes from the word "zorro", which in Spanish means "fox". It lives predominantly in dry and arid climates, such as the savannahs and open country of Central, Southern, and sub-Saharan Africa, excluding the Congo basin and the more coastal areas of West Africa.〔
==Physical characteristics==
Striped polecats are about in length, including their tails, and tall to the shoulders on average. They weigh anywhere from to , generally, the males being the larger of the two sexes.〔 Their specific coloring varies by location. Generally they are black on the underside, white on the tail, with stripes running from their heads down their backs and on their cheeks. The legs and feet are black. Their skulls are usually around long, and they have unique face mask coloring, often including a white spot on their head, and white ears. These masks are thought to serve as warnings to potential predators or other antagonists.
