H. nov I saw at the Central Zoo in Montreal on June 14, 2008, and brought back to you. This is not my first time with this species. I have seen them before and know them well. They are very friendly and easy to handle. They seem to enjoy being petted and will often lean into your hand for more attention. Their skin feels soft and smooth, almost like velvet. I also noticed that they have a slight musk odor when handled. They make excellent pets for those who are willing to commit time to their care.
