Or maybe mongoosi, like cacti or octupi.

The correct term is 'mongooses.' There is no 'maybe.'

I believe it would only end in "i" if the word was derived from Latin.

If it WAS like that it would mongi.

You don't say octupusi do you?

Mongooses are 33 living species of small carnivorans from southern Eurasia and mainland Africa of the family Herpestidae. Four additional species from Madagascar in the subfamily Galidiinae, which were previously classified in this family, are also referred to as "mongooses" or "mongoose-like". Genetic evidence indicates that the Galidiinae are more closely related to other Madagascar carnivorans in the family Eupleridae, which is the closest living group to the true mongooses.

It's mongooses in the real world, who cares what we call them in the Halo universe, personaly I prefer mongeese!

And so the war of Gods and Demons shall begin. Tomorrow will end with your heart in my hand!

Love ya! =3

Actually it's 'Mongooses' or 'Mongeese'. Either term is correct.

Agreed

Don't die for your country. Let the enemy die for theirs.

Make sure to join this awesome group!

It doesn't matter what a mongoose is called. Because it's the mongoose that Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now...and so we'll hunt it...because it can take it...because it's not a hero...it's a silent guardian...a watchful protector...a Dark Mongoose.
