[3] Male and female form a pair bond during breeding season. The female has a long pregnancy compared to other rodents: 110 days at the longest. The young are born well-developed or precocial. They are mature at about 2 years of age. The meat of the brush-tailed porcupine is popular and is consumed in large quantities. [2]
Bushmeat extraction in the Amazon rainforest was estimated to be much lower, at 3.69 ± 3.9 kg/km 2 (21.1 ± 22.3 lb/sq mi) in the case of species weighing more than 10 kg and 0.6 ± 0.9 kg/km 2 (3.4 ± 5.1 lb/sq mi) in the case of species weighing less than 10 kg, based on 3 individuals.
Bushmeat itself is an important resource for Bioko Island, both economically and nutritionally, [9] and both hunting and consumption have increased in relation to Equatorial Guinea's GDP. [1] Bushmeat is preferably consumed over other sources of protein by the island's two major ethnic groups, the Bubi and the Fang , though the Fang show a ...

The hairstyle is achieved with a short-cropped haircut on top and frequent brushing and/or combing of the curls (which trains the curls to flatten out), as well as wearing a silky durag or a wave cap to add extra strength ...
Another home range size estimate of 0.09 to 0.12 km 2 (0.035 to 0.046 sq mi) has also been suggested with a population density range of 10 and 23 individuals per km 2. [3] The forested area available to the species within its desired elevation range was estimated at 360 km 2 (140 sq mi), yielding an estimated population of 6,120–10,080 and a ...
The tail has a variable number of complete black and white rings. Its claws are retractable. The soles of the feet are hairy. [2] As indicated by its common name, this is a relatively large civet, almost certainly the largest of the Viverra species and exceeded in size among the Viverridae family only by African civets and binturongs. Its head ...
