Sunda Stink-badger, Mydaus javanensis | Mystery animal in Borneo not such a mystery after all, or is it?
Mystery animal in Borneo not such a mystery after all, or is it?
The animal was indeed a Sunda Stink-badger, or Mydaus javanensis,
one of only two member of the skunk family Mephitidae, outside the
Americas. For a long time this species was placed as a member of the
mustelid family – to which all real badgers belong - but DNA and
morphological studies strongly supports their relationship to the
American skunks
