Does anyone know what species of mongoose Rikki Tikki Tavi from Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book is?
I asked this question on Yahoo! answers,but all I got was I don't knows
I could figure it out by using google to narrow it down,but google is so two thousand and late.

No but I bet if we investigate this woman's illustrations there'll be notes that tell us.

I've put the http as hxxp for security. copy it to your browser and change it there and then we cant be tracked back here from any site you visit.
Try to do it with all your links 'Kay? We want to keep our forum tidy and there's some scum out there.

Even with the http that link only led me to the search bar for google images,so I googled Rikki Tikki Tavi artwork,I gather he's an Indian Grey (Herpestes edwardsii) as opposed to the small Asian mongoose (Herpestes javanicus).
Apparently there are only two species found in India.
I intend painting characters from the jungle book on my niece's bedroom wall(at my sister's request),and it wouldn't be complete without Rikki Tikki,but I strive for accuracy.

Oh wow, I wish my kids had had an uncle like you. Wish they'd had an Uncle at all really....but one like you would be perfect. You're arty and you got spiders.... and you can fix shit! |
