hello! my name's spencer, the owner of this account!
I go by he/him/his. I am a minor and have been diagnosed with autism.
I'm currently fixsating on Gef The Mongoose and mongeese in general, so I decided to make this blog!
asks are always open, so ask about anything that interests you!
Voirrey was never interviewed by herself as her father understandably was not comfortable with his teenage daughter being alone in a room with men that were strangers.
An interviewer did say he heard Voirrey making noises but Jim then distracted him elsewhere in the house.
Despite all his mischief, Gef was known to be helpful to the Irvings as well.
Some of his good deeds were waking the family if they overslept, alerting them if someone was approaching the house, and putting out the fire in the stove if it had been mistakenly left on.
According to Viorrey, the Irving Family's daughter, Gef was about the size of a rat and was a sandy yellow color with stripes- and had a giant, bushy tail.
This is unusual for mongooses, as they are almost all brown/black and have short tails. They are also much larger than rats.
gef the talking mongoose + mongeese in general have been my special interest for like,.,.,. 4 years now and its so awesome to see other people equally as interested as me ^_^
(I love banded mongoose鈥硷笍)
OMG TY!
I absolutely love mongooses and especially Gef, and I'm so happy there are other people who like these things! :D
I'M GONNA TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT EXACTLY THIS MEANS /nm /silly
Okay, so if you're asking about Gef's age, today he would be 171 years old, as he was born in 1852. When he was discovered in 1931, he was 79.
Mongooses have a life span of around 10 years in the wild, and around 17 in human care.
The humorous thing about this is that Gef was eight (8) times as old as a normal mongoose when he was discovered, and he describes himself as the "Eighth Wonder of the World!"
