Melogale everetti
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Kinabalu Park, aggregated onto a 50 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 1 square of 50 km carry records for Bornean Ferret-badger in and around Kinabalu Park, and the 0 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Restricted to the northern tip of Borneo, the Bornean ferret-badger is a small, nocturnal mammal with a long, bushy tail. It is easily identified by the yellow or white mask-like pattern on its face and a dorsal stripe, varying from white to red, that stretches from its head to its shoulders. This species typically weighs between 1 kg and 3 kg, with a body length reaching up to 44 cm. To support its lifestyle, it possesses broad feet with strong claws for digging and partial webbing that aids in climbing.
