Waar u de Large Grey Mongoose in Zuid-Afrika ziet

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Large Grey Mongoose at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, Addo Elephant National Park, Camdeboo National Park, Garden Route National Park and Giants Castle Game Reserve and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.

The Large Grey Mongoose is most recorded in Western Cape (80% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (11% of records), based on 187 iNaturalist observations. 60 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Large Grey Mongoose on site or nearby.

The Large Grey Mongoose is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Addo Elephant National Park: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Camdeboo National Park: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Large Grey Mongoose (Herpestes ichneumon) is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.

The Egyptian mongoose (Herpestes ichneumon), also known as the ichneumon, is a species of mongoose. It may be a reservoir host for visceral leishmaniasis in Sudan.
