Mongooses are well-known for killing and eating poisonous snakes so they are also known as snake-killers, though all mongoose doesn't eat snakes.
They are carnivores so are known to prey on mice, rats, earthworms, insects, lizards, crabs, and small or medium-sized foul, like chicken.
But here's a different story, I saw this Mongoose living as a Pet animal in a small local restaurant while roaming my city. At first sight, I thought it came here just searching for foods.But it stayed there for long enough then I expected. So, I ask the owner if that lives there.
She told me that It was actually their pet.It was living with them for more than a year ago.
The most surprising part is, although they are well-known carnivores it mostly eats milk, sometimes it hunts rats.
I've Never seen a Pet Mongoose Drinking Milk Before.

I wonder if keeping a mongoose is anything like keeping a pet ferret.
well, I'm unknown about Ferret too. Is it like mongoose??
This is what a ferret looks like, some people keep them as pets and take them for walks and everything. (image from pixabay)
