Cryptoprocta ferox, as the fossa is known scientifically, is the largest carnivore unique to Madagascar, and it can reach at least 28 pounds in weight and stretch a full six feet from dog-like snout to tip of long brown tail. Dollar told me there are unsubstantiated reports of fossa up to 44 pounds.
They can be found only in the tropical rainforests of the Madagascar. Fossa is the largest predator on the island and it does not have natural enemies, but due to extreme deforestation (90% of the forest is already destroyed) it is listed as an endangered species. Less than 2500 animals are left in the wild.
