The collared mongoose is a small carnivorous mammal with a long body and a characteristic light collar around its neck. It inhabits the tropical forests of Borneo and hunts small animals.
The collared mongoose differs from other mongooses by its light collar on the neck. It is important for the forest because it eats many insects and helps maintain balance in nature.
