This is a bearkat.

| A bearkat is not a mythical creature like most people believe. The correct name is Arctictis binturong, also known as Binturong ( bearcat). It is located in Burma, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Sumatra, Java, Borneo, and Palawan. They live in tropical and subtropical rainforests and enjoy spending most they're time in the trees, and are rarely found on the forest floor. Bearcats are nocturnal and carniverous animals feeding on insects, lizards, eggs, chicks, rodents, fish and sometimes figs. It grows up to 3 feet and has tail that is as long as it's body. They weigh about 25-30 lbs and can live up to 20 years. Due to poaching, Bearcats are considered endangered in some parts of Southeast Asia. |

It doesn't say anywhere in that description that they eat BISON.
