What does a common palm civet eats?

Palm civets are reasonably small, extremely cute members of the family viverridae. This is a small and primitive family of carnivorous and omnivorous animals, made up of somewhat catlike, somewhat lemurlike civets and binturongs and genets and other mammals of similar nature. Among them, the common or Asian palm civet is an omnivore, one who eats mainly fruit. Along with mangos and rambutan and others, as you may know, the palm civet is a fan of coffee. From this we get Kopi Luwak [which I think may be the crux of your question]. As the palm civet is primarily, but not entirely, a vegetarian, Kopi Luwak is probably an iffy buy for someone who does not eat meat. I hope I have answered your question. I think so.

What is the scientific name for the civet cat?

The scientific name of the civet cat is dependent upon the genera and species of civet. There are many. Almost all civets are grouped beneath the family Viverridae with the African Palm Civet the lone member of the family Nandiniidae. Civets' genera and species names, however, are multiple. For example, the masked palm civet's binomial name is Paguma larvata while the binomial name of the African civet [not the African palm civet] is Civettictis civetta.If you need the scientific name of a specific species of civet cat, it is easy to look up civets and go from there.
