It is listed as "Least Concern" by IUCN as it is a relatively widely distributed, appears to be tolerant of degraded habitats, and occurs in a number of protected areas.[1] CharacteristicsThe Malay civet's tail is black above and ringed on the lower side.[2] Their upperparts are greyish with numerous black spots and about 15 black bands in the tail.{{citation needed|date=April 2013}} Distribution and habitatThe historical range of the Malay civet includes Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, the Philippines and Singapore. In Malaysia, it occurs in Borneo, Banggi Island, Langkawi Island, Penang Island and in Peninsular Malaysia.[3] It is also known from Sumatra.[4] It was introduced to Sulawesi and the Maluku Islands.[1] Museum records indicate that the Malay civet also occurred on the Indonesian islands of Java, Bawal and Telok Pai, and on the Philippine island Leyte.[5] In 2012, an individual was photographed in Singapore.[6] The Malay civet population in the Philippines may have originated in Borneo and colonized Palawan island naturally. It possibly later dispersed to the rest of Philippines through human introduction, because land connection between Philippines islands did not exist during last glacial period.[7] The Malay civet inhabits a wide variety of habitats including forests, secondary habitats, cultivated land and the outskirts of villages.[8] They range in elevations of up to {{convert|900|m|ft|abbr=on}} on Gunung Madalan in Sabah and {{convert|1100|m|ft|abbr=on}} on Usun Apau and the Kelabit Upland in Sarawak.{{citation needed|date=April 2013}} Ecology and behaviourMalay civets are solitary, omnivorous, and primarily terrestrial.[9] Malay civets are nocturnal. They feed on invertebrates and small vertebrates.{{citation needed|date=April 2013}} Densities of Malay civets are higher in unlogged than in a logged forests. Fruit comprises a larger proportion of diet in unlogged forest compared to logged forest. With fruit contributing a larger percentage of the diet in unlogged forests, logging may lead to increased competition by other frugivores such as palm civets which may exploit fruit directly on trees unlike the mainly terrestrial Malay civet.[10] Around the Malaysian Bera Lake Malay civets were found in logged forest. Arboreal, frugivorous civets are little affected by logging, whereas terrestrial, carnivorous or insectivorous species might be negatively impacted by logging.[11] ThreatsAs a ground-living species it is exposed to snaring and other forms of ground-level trapping, and hunting with dogs. The limited survey in areas heavily used by people suggests it is rather well able to persist at general levels of threat. The species is occasionally hunted for food and treated as a pest as it raids poultry.[1] In Borneo, the Malayan civet is negatively affected by the effects of timber harvesting.[12] ConservationViverra tangalunga is protected in Malaysia under the Wildlife Protection Act (WPA) of 1972.[1] However, in many rural areas of Peninsular Malaysia civets are considered a pest because they prey on small livestock and raid fruit orchards. Section 55 of the WPA of 1972 allows farmers to shoot any wild animal that causes damage to their property, as long as reasonable efforts have been made to frighten the animal away.[13]References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite iucn |journal=The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species |publisher=IUCN |author=Duckworth, J.W. | author2 = Mathai, J. | author3 = Wilting, A. | author4=Holden, J. |author5=Hearn, A. |author6=Ross, J. |last-author-amp=yes |title=Viverra tangalunga |volume=2016 |page=e.T41708A45220284 |date=2016 |url=https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/41708/45220284 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2016-1.RLTS.T41708A45220284.en |access-date=30 October 2018}} 2. ^Gray, J.
