How does a Zorrilla look like

The zorilla is also called the striped polecat.  It is black with white stripes.  It is commonly placed in with the skunk family, but  is actually related to the weasel.  They have a elongated white spot on the forehead between  their eyes and a white patch from above the eye to the ear and backward to make a near  triangle-shaped patch.  The zorilla has stripes from the top of the head to the tail. The tail is either white or white with black hairs, mixed.   The zorilla can grow to about 13-15 inches, excluding tail.  The tail itself is usually 8-12 inches long.  They can weigh from  1.5 – 3 pounds.
