Pine martens! Apparently some live close to my hometown but I've never seen one in the wild. And ermines are pretty cool, I hope this coat is fake!

European Badgers. Much less temperamental than their American cousins.

Pikachu posted:This thread is very much my poo poo Is Pikachu a mustelid or a rodent? Sneasel and Furret would be mustelids but Pikachu's less obvious, I think he's meant to be a big mouse thing but he looks more like a short fat ferret.

I had a pet ferret for a while. He was cool, but also loved to steal entire boxes or bags of snack food and cereal. I remember the sound of a tiny little ferret dragging a huge bag of food past my office every once in a while. The little "hehehehehehehehhehehehe" sound was always hilarious. <-- See avatar

Crossposting from an old thread my post about Ewok the Pug Ferret. Ewok had brachycephaly. This made him different from other ferrets. Most ferrets don't have tusks.  Most ferrets have long snouts.  Most ferrets have long tongues. In this way, Ewok was like most ferrets.  In fact, his tongue didn't fit in his mouth very well, so he let it hang out most of the time.  He also had a snoring problem.  He was lucky enough to have two loving owners in his lifetime, and he lived to the ripe old age of seven.

I went kayaking in Monterey a few months ago and all the otters were just chilling the gently caress out floating on their back doing the rock smashy thing with a bunch of oysters they gathered. They're pretty loving

I've seen this a few times but I've only just realized that it's a literal Pop Goes The Weasel's domesticated cousin.

Royal W posted:They also rape baby seals to death, then continue raping the corpses. There's a decent chance that stress and environmental disruption are causing these behaviors, because they're much less common in protected areas with fewer people.

13Pandora13 posted:gently caress year Martens These pitch invasions are getting elaborate. Thoughtless posted:They're called least weasels for a reason. Yeah but I still think it's a juvenile or maybe a female. Wikipedia says 5 to 10 inches for males, 4.5 to 8 for females. It's loving adorable either way.

Stottie Kyek posted:Those are great, you might just be my favourite mustelid instead, RandomFerret!  Did you know that until very recently, skunks were considered mustelids? They added the superfamily musteloidae, and split skunks off into a new family, mephetidae. What I'm saying is let's party like it's 1996!   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLz1GSkJeks
