Jaguarundi and Babirusa



New level up release animal level 135
Both are breedable.

The Babirusa looks like a pig but is related to the hippo.
It is found in Sulawesi and Indonesia.
They wallow in mud to keep their skin clear of insects and parasites.

The Jaguarundi, the Otter Cat, is born with spots that fade as it grows older.
Jaguarundis are endangered because the dense brush that provides habitat has been cleared. Jaguarundis still exist in Mexico, but they are now very rare in Texas. People in the Lower Rio Grande Valley are working together to plant native shrubs and restore habitat for the Jaguarundi and Ocelot.
