Ficus variegata and civets at Tabin, Sabah

uluulublog

In October 2011 a very large  Ficus variegata  fig tree was fruiting next to the core road at Tabin Wildlife Reserve in East Sabah.

The Ficus variegata is the large tree  in the middle of the photo above. Compare with the vehicle for size.
When we returned at night there were 3 different species of civets feeding on the green figs high up in the branches including a  single Binturong and at least 3 individual Island (Common)  Palm Civets, and Bornean Striped Palm Civets.

This large  Ficus variegata was growing in logged forest along the core road at Tabin Wildlife Reserve.
