Lesser Oriental Civet

Viverricula indica (É. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire 1803)

Lifespan, longevity, and ageing

provided by AnAge articles
Observations: Not much is known about the longevity of these animals. One wild born specimen was about 13-14 years old when it died in captivity (Richard Weigl 2005). Maximum longevity may be underestimated, though, and further studies are necessary.
