It must be great to see them in the wild. They are great characters. My pair eat defrosted rat pups. The female is fine to handle but the male can be snappy and musks quite a bit. They are very inquisitive and love to settle in their branches to watch the world go by.

In the picture you can see how plump the female is, hanging dow I guess to move the babies down towards the vent. The male is peeping out below her
