The ferret is a domesticated for of the European Polecat.
My friend had a pet ferret one time. They are messy and have an odor.
They have an odor? I didn't know that. I do know that they have brown, black, white or mixed fur.
The one my friend had was brown. Yes, they can have a very distinct odor! Sometimes it is unbearable!
Ferrets tend be sexually dimorphic, this means that males are substantially larger than females.
Oh, I didn't know that! Very interesting. My friends ferret was pretty small!
Must have been a female, also some parts of the world have imposed restrictions on keeping ferrets.
