How does a malabar civet reproduce?

The Malabar civet reproduces through sexual reproduction, with mating typically occurring during the breeding season. After a gestation period of about 60 days, the female gives birth to one to four cubs in a secluded den. The young are born blind and helpless, relying on their mother for care and nourishment until they are old enough to venture out and learn to hunt. Maturity is reached within a year, allowing them to establish their territories.
