The North American river otter is a member of the mustelid or weasel family and is a “predator at the top of the food chain in the waterways of New Jersey,” according to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP).

Ferrets. I had 3 for 7-8 years and I miss them. They are not like any other pet- in a good way and also not so good. They are adorable and hard work.

Mr Chance the ferret my moms bf rescued off the road some odd months ago :] he's so much better now thankfully

Good morning from @altyellonatpark.org

Tired: it's caturday
Wired: it's otter day

Three months of squeaks, splashes, and serious cuteness! 💙

Bao is officially in his busy otter era, curious, confident, and always ready to investigate anything that moves (or makes a splash). From wiggly pounces to tiny paddle-powered swims, he’s growing fast and loving every minute of it. (1/2)

We did a tour of Scotland a couple of years back and stayed in a cottage for a few days where these little fellas visited in the evening

The mystery behind the multitude of martens in Interior Alaska this winter The housecat-size predators have been sighted regularly in recent months, a phenomenon that hasn’t been totally explained.

Skunk mating season in Colorado typically peaks from February through March. During this time, striped skunks are highly active, and increased, pungent odor is common as males fight for mates and females defend against unwanted suitors.

Fun fact: Wolverines actually exist simultaneously in two realms; the greater universe, and the mirror dimension.

We're assholes in both, though. There's really no difference.

the absolute smarm of this creature

A white short tailed weasel (aka ermine) eating dry food out of a cat food bowl on a gray slate pad under an old black cast iron cook stove. There's a bit of yellow pine floor showing in the corner.

Most days I love living in an old house at the edge of the woods. It does, however, present some interesting problems. For instance, today finding a short tailed weasel (aka ermine) feasting at the cat food bowl. You have to look very closely to see the black tip of its tail.

may we all be as free and joyous as this ermine 💜

Frontal view of an all white weasel. It has rounded ears, black whiskers and black eyes. There is a slight pinkish cast to the ears & toes. It is standing on dark blue/grey rocks.

The cutest thing I’ve ever seen and I know I say that about a lot of animals but this little guy hurt my entire soul. I was beaming the whole way home!! 🥺🥺

In “Valerie and her week of Wonders” the vampire bad guy is described as having the “face of a polecat” and… am I missing some cultural context or are they thinking of a different animal in the original Czech?
