''Viverra leakeyi'', also known as Leakey's civet〔 or the giant civet,〔 is an extinct species of civet. Its fossils have been found in Africa, from Langebaanweg, Ethiopia, Tanzania, and the Omo Valley.〔(Raffaele. "Remarks on the Messinian carnivores (Mammalia) of Italy." Bollettino della Societa Paleontologica Italiana 47.2 (2008): 196-201. Print. )〕〔Brands, S.J. (comp.) 1989-present. The Taxonomicon. Universal Taxonomic Services, Zwaag, The Netherlands. Accessed March 7th 2014.〕 ==Description== Being the largest viverrid currently known to ever exist,〔 it grew to about the size of a small leopard, around and high at the shoulder. ''V. leakeyi'' looked physically similar to living Asiatic civet species but is thought to be more closely related to the African ''Civettictis civetta'' due to their location.〔Turner, Alan. National Geographic prehistoric mammals. Washington, D.C.: National Geographic, 2004. Print.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://fossilworks.org/?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=199983 )〕
