The fossa is the largest mammalian carnivore on Madagascar and has been compared to a small cougar, as it has convergently evolved many cat-like features. Adults have a head-body length of 70–80 cm (28–31 in) and weigh between 5.5 and 8.6 kg (12 and 19 lb), with the males larger than the females.
By this method, body diagrams can be derived by pasting organs into one of the "plain" body images shown below. This method requires a graphics editor that can handle transparent images, in order to avoid white squares around the organs when pasting onto the body image. Pictures of organs are found on the project's main page. These were ...
The juvenile female fossa's os clitoridis and pseudo-penis shrink as she grows, unlike that of other pseudo-penis species. [ 3 ] The mammalian pseudo-penis appears to be simply for display, though the spotted hyena is an exception: the female spotted hyena urinates, copulates, and gives birth through her pseudo-penis.
The fossa (Cryptoprocta ferox) is a smaller relative of C. spelea that still survives.. Although some morphological differences between the two fossa species have been described, [17] these may be allometric (growth-related), and in their 1986 Mammalian Species account of the fossa, Michael Köhncke and Klaus Leonhardt wrote that the two were morphologically identical.

Cottontail rabbits are in the Sylvilagus genus, which is in the Leporidae family. They are found in the Americas . [ 1 ] Most Sylvilagus species have stub tails with white undersides that show when they retreat, giving them their characteristic name.
The Malagasy or striped civet (Fossa fossana), also known as the fanaloka (Malagasy, [fə̥ˈnaluk]) or jabady, [5] is an euplerid endemic to Madagascar. [6] It is the only species in genus Fossa . The Malagasy civet is a small mammal , about 47 centimetres (19 in) long excluding the tail (which is only about 20 centimetres (7.9 in)).
From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
In anatomy, a fossa (/ ˈ f ɒ s ə /; [1] [2] pl.: fossae (/ ˈ f ɒ s iː / or / ˈ f ɒ s aɪ /); from Latin 'ditch, trench') is a depression or hollow, usually in a bone, such as the hypophyseal fossa (the depression in the sphenoid bone). [3]
