This mongoose may be found in Egypt, Spain, Portugal, Israel, and most of sub-Saharan Africa, except for central Zaire, western South Africa, and Namibia. It has been introduced to Madagascar and Italy.
It prefers to live in forests, savanna, or scrub, never far from water.


The largest of all African mongooses, the Egyptian Mongoose has a body 48–60 cm long, and a 33–54 cm tail. It weighs 1.7–4 kg.


The Egyptian Mongoose has a slender body, with a pointed snout and small ears. It has 35–40 teeth, with highly developed carnassials, used for shearing meat. Its long, coarse fur ranges in colour from grey to reddish brown and is ticked with brown or yellow flecks.

Their tails have black tips. The hind feet and a small area around the eyes are furless.
