It is considered common in this region and therefore listed as Least Concern in the IUCN Red List.[2] Little is known about its ecology.[3] CharacteristicsThe Angolan genet has long light brown coloured fur with dark spots and a continuous dark crested line across the back. Its throat and chest are light grey to greyish black. It has small spots on the front and shoulders. The spots are more numerous and slightly bigger on the sides. In head-to-body length it ranges from {{convert|44|to|48|cm|in|abbr=on}}. Its bushy {{convert|38|to|43|cm|in|abbr=on}} long tail is ringed with a dark tip. Its legs are dark at the back.[4][5] It has a dark grey face, a black muzzle and is white around the eyes and mouth. Its crest on the back is up to {{convert|6|cm|in|abbr=on}} long.[6] It is distinguished from the common genet by the black rather than white tip to the tail and more irregular blotching and spotting on the coat. Melanistic individuals have been recorded in some areas.[7] The male of the species is larger than the female.[8] Distribution and habitatThe Angolan genet occurs in Angola, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. It lives in a variety of environments in its range, including both the local miombo woodlands and plains.[2] During camera-trapping and transect surveys in Tanzania between 2007 and 2012, the Angolan genet was recorded north of Katavi National Park and in the Rukwa Region.[9] ThreatsThe Angolan genet is not considered threatened by habitat change, but might be negatively affected by road traffic.[2] In Tanzania, traditional healers use the Angolan genet in their practices. Some individuals are poached for this practise.[3] References1. ^{{MSW3 Wozencraft |pages=554 |id=14000387 |heading=Genetta angolensis}} {{Commons|Genetta angolensis}}{{Carnivora|V.}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q43217}}{{DEFAULTSORT:genet, Angolan}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite iucn |journal=The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species |publisher=IUCN |authors=Gaubert, P., Fischer, C., Hausser, Y. & Do Linh San, E. |date=2016 |title=Genetta angolensis |page=e.T41696A45218468 |url=https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/41696/45218468 |doi=10.2305/IUCN.UK.2016-1.RLTS.T41696A45218468.en}} 3. ^1 {{cite journal |last=Fischer|first=C. |year=2013 |title=Diversity and distribution of small carnivores in a miombo woodland within the Katavi region, Western Tanzania |journal=Small Carnivore Conservation |volume=48 |pages=60–66}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Gaubert|first1=P.|last2=Taylor|first2=P.
