Even at the age of 19, Zoe the fossa is as nimble as ever. Fossa are intelligent, agile animals that move with ease high in the tree tops of their forest homes. Though they can weigh up to 22 pounds, they are easily capable of hopping from one branch to the other. That extra-long tail helps the fossa balance and keep steady while maneuvering around. Retractable claws, like those of a cat, and flexible ankle joints give them the ability to climb down a tree headfirst! | Staten Island Zoo

Fearsome, fierce, and a little cheeky. #Fossa #MadagascarWildlife #AnimalFacts #UnusualAnimals #WildlifeReels | Discvr Blog | Facebook
