“
When will you civets learn? It's not nice to fool Mama Binturong.
―Mama Binturong to Tompok[src]
 ”

Civets are a species of animal native to Dragon Island and the forest. They feed on berries and are preyed upon by Komodo dragons.

History

Old civet's warning to the Lion Guard

“
You ain't from around these parts, are ya? 'Cause if you were, you'd know, on that spit o' land, there be dragons!
―The old civet to the Lion Guard on Dragon Island[src]
 ”

As the Lion Guard crossed a land bridge to Dragon Island, an old civet approached them and warned them that there were dragons on the island. The Lion Guard, however, dismissed his warnings and proceeded to Dragon Island. Later, as the Lion Guard was departing the island, they informed the old civet that they had taken care of the dragons, to his shock.[1]

Tompok's advice for the Lion Guard

“
I can't help ya. But I know a guy who might. A civet. He'll talk to you.
―Bambun to the Lion Guard on Tompok[src]
 ”

Upon entering the forest, the Lion Guard learned that its residents feared the word "tuliza." As a prank, Bunga snuck up behind Tompok and yelled, "Tuliza!" This caused him to panic and fall into a nearby river. Anga flew after him and picked him up in her talons, but when he demanded to be let go, she deposited him on the forest floor. The Lion Guard approached him and attempted to question him about tuliza, but he fled in fear once more. As he ran away, Mama Binturong intercepted him and questioned him on why he had been discussing tuliza.

Later, Bambun recommended that the Lion Guard ask Tompok where Makini's staff was. They did so, and Tompok advised them to speak with a mouse deer.[2]

Physical characteristics

Civets are small, four-legged animals with long tails, spots on their backs, and rounded ears. There are two types of civets: those native to Dragon Island and those native to the forest. While coastal civets are dusky brown, forest civets are a slightly darker brown.[1][2]

Sociocultural characteristics

Civets are known to feed on berries.[2] Coastal civets are preyed upon by Komodo dragons.[1]
