They sit in the dark and watch you. You don't know they're there.

Then when you get an urge for a snack, you can't find the pretzels. You hear a smirk and when you turn around there he is, laughing at you with your multigrain deliciousness.

That's great vav! I've never seen a mongoose but I have heard to watch your food (i imagine they are like a tropical racoon, which i DO have experience with :x ) looks like the rumors are true. Thanks for sharing!

I saw that happen at Little Lameshur! And it may have happened at Waterlemon.
Sorry you lost your snack, but you got some terrific shots!

Same thing happened to my Doritos once. It didn't make for a very happy Tracy in WI!

Why we hang bags in trees!! I have to say, for as much as I dislike ferrets, and as much as these guys look like them, I love these little thieves!! :D

We saw lots of Mongoose this last trip. Also, deer for the first time, about 3 sightings. And of course the occasional donkeys and goats :). No iguanas though.... I was so glad my newbie got to see some cool creatures!
