The Small Indian Civet (Viverricula indica), is a species of civet found across south and south-east Asia as well as in the Indonesian archipelago.

In India this civet is called Rasse. In Gujarat State, you may find this beautiful animal in many villages. Specifically on Ahmedabad-Vadodara Expressway it is common to see Small Indian Civet died in accident, as people using this First Expressway of India are less sensitive to such animal.

In Sri Lanka, this animal is known as Kalawedda by the Sinhala speaking community.
