Can you say "M" for Mongoose. They are rather small, agile,
weasel-like carnivores native to Africa, southern Europe, and Asia.
The mongoose lives near streams, in thickets, hedges, and fields feeding on
rats, mice, snakes, lizards, eggs, and insects. Some mongooses also eat eggs,
fruit, seeds, and nuts. The Indian mongoose is renowned for killing cobras,
which it is capable of doing due to its speed, thick protective hide, and long,
thick hair. One of the largest species was considered a sacred animal in ancient
Egypt. It checked the increase of crocodiles in the Nile River by eating their
eggs and gained the popular name “Pharaoh’s Mouse.”
