Description: Smaller than a wolverine, but it is Old World's largest species of marten, native from the jungle islands of Southeast Asia, within small parts of southern India, to southeastern China, to the arctic of eastern Russia. Their names, comes from their yellowish throats, but their heads are blackish, while their hindquarters are brownish with darker tips in their tails. They have been said that they are the most ancient marten, originated in the Pliocene, as indicated by its geographical distribution and its atypical coloration. The yellow-throated marten holds extensive, but not permanent, home-ranges. It actively patrols its territory, having been known to cover over 10 to 20 km in a single day and night. It primarily hunts on the ground, but can climb trees proficiently, being capable of making jumps up to 8 to 9 meters in distance between branches. After March snowfalls, the yellow-throated marten restricts its activities up treetops. They lived from solitary, to pairs, to small packs, which makes them among the most social mustelids, like giant otters, and one of your domestic pets of the mustelid family(e.g. skunks and ferrets). They can be fell prey to tigers and moon bears. Yellow-throated martens are much like golden jackals, which they can follow the trails to scavenge on tiger kills, in most areas where tigers lived.
