A sheltered walkway in Bukit Merah has become a hotspot for wildlife enthusiasts after a family of civets were spotted living there.

Maricel Cabanero, 39, told Shin Min Daily News that she first saw a photo of the civets at Block 129 Bukit Merah View on Facebook.
When she visited the block on Monday (July 15), she only managed to see one adult and one baby civet

"I was not lucky that day," said the animal enthusiast.

Undeterred, Cabanero returned to the block the following evening with her friends. They caught sight of three adult civets and four of their babies foraging for food.

"When they were done at about 9pm, one of the babies had trouble climbing up the walkway's pillars to return to the nest," she said.

"The entire family was squeaking, which made me feel upset."

To help the baby civet, Cabanero and her friends used a branch to guide it back to its nest.

Civet hotspots in Bukit Merah​

Wildlife photography enthusiast Xiang Guoan (transliteration) told Shin Min that there are actually two civet hotspots in Bukit Merah.

The retiree said the animals usually appear at Blocks 123, 126, 128 and 129, as well as the nearby car park.

According to a Bukit Merah resident surnamed Lin, the civets have been living in the estate for more than a year.

Lin said that the civets might have chosen to build their nests at Bukit Merah, a quieter estate with older residents.
