Oh - Thanks for those links Willie - so it is a relative of the ferrett too..Having a pet ferrett has been a trend here lately - Eeewww - a very stinky prospect if you ask me..P.U. Not fair for them..they need to be out in the wild...These yound kids like the attn they get, don't think what the animals need..Pet RATS as well are the rage...(shaking head) lol

Hmmm looked them up and found out they are weasels and that in the north in winter they turn white and are then called ermine and were trapped for their fur..to trim ceremonial coats etc...well - I have heard of ermine coats and stoles...
