Lowered 90's Yamanote trucks, coaster grip gear and low center cabin. Flatbed in front with open driver station and sunroof. Operated by people-shaped civets. Livery: Graffiti.
And nevertheless, while not the same category as a perfectly modeled Flying Scotsman, both are little pretend trains.

Is coffee made from beans partially digested by civets really that much tastier? New chemical analyses suggest it actually is. https://www.sciencenews.org/article/coffee-beans-civet-poop-tastier
Coffee beans pooped out by civets really are tastier. Here's why
Pricey civet coffee gets its cred from its journey through the mammal’s gut, which changes the content of fat, protein, fatty acids — and even caff...

Despite its name, it’s neither a bear nor a cat...
So, where does the Binturong fit on the tree of life? 🌿
It belongs to the Viverridae family, making it a close relative of civets and genets.

They feed us too. Delicious boar stew...
Also small eagles/falcons and genets/civets went feral with our chickens.
No more chickens. SAD.

But then how will the civets make rent
Scientists are finding out how coffee beans are transformed when they pass through the guts of Asian palm civets in the hope of replicating the process without using animals

There was a company (founded by a French entrepreneur) in the US called Afineur that fermented coffee beans to create ‘kopi luwak’ without the civets.

Honestly though, no need to cage up the poor little civets for this. Normal coffee is just fine (yes, I've had both).

Coffee beans harvested from the faeces of the Asian palm civet may have higher levels of fats and other key flavour-enhancing compounds than traditionally harvested beans, according to a paper in Scientific Reports. go.nature.com/4nuNrL2 #plantscience 🧪
