Observation d’une genette, Genetta genetta (Linné, 1758), sur les rives du lac du Jaunay en Vendée
(2001)
The diurnal observation of a Genet, such as the one made in the bocage of Vendée (France) related here, is exceptional because this small carnivore is said to be so shy and so exclusively nocturnal.
Tracks and faeces of otter are abundant around the lac du Jaunay (Vendée) but this animal is very fierce and nocturnal. Nevertheless, an otter was observed in very good condition at midday, in June. It was fishing in a small pound near the lake. This note describes the behaviour of this otter.
