it has a bit different posture for a cat... some kindda primate...may be a lemur....but the tail was short for a lemur... i hope the photo is clear...its sum kindda blurred.

I don't know, but the head doesn't seem as primate to me...

Its Body and head look like a Ringtail Cat but the tail obviously isnt ringed. Perhaps it is a really old mount and the coloring has faded?

[Chris103]

Im still going crazy trying to figure this one out! What country or part of the country was this taken?

[mcar]

It still looks like cat to me.

[Chris103]

It may be a cat but what species of cat? Thats the question here.

Looks like a fisher cat; the light has bleached out the color of fur, and the jaw looks like its poorly done (like animal is without her dentures)

I also believe that the animal is from the weasel family, because my nose is very pointed and narrow.
