Skull of a Chinese ferret badger
Image: Chinese ferret badger (Melogale moschata) - skull.

Comments

This photo of the skull of a Chinese ferret badger shows typical carnivore dentition. Ferret badgers are indeed largely carnivorous, eating mainly earthworms and insects. Small vertebrate animals may be eaten occasionally. Plant material forms only a small part of the diet.
