The zorilla (ictonyx striatus) is a small nocturnal carnivore native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is a mustelid, like weasels, ferrets and otters, and closely resembles North American skunks. The zorilla is black, with a white spot on the forehead and white stripes along the body, and, like skunks, uses scent glands under its tail to spray a malodorous liquid at predators.
A zorilla uses a foul smelling spray (similar to that of a skunk) to get away from predators. Even lions will shy away from the stinky spray of the zorilla.
