Top: Recreation: Pets: Ferrets

Please submit sites that discuss ferrets as pets. Sites discussing ferrets from a biological or scientific standpoint should be submitted to Science/Biology/Zoology/Chordates/Mammals/Mustelids and sites discussing ferrets kept for hunting purposes should be submitted to Recreation/Outdoors/Hunting/Ferreting.
Ferrets belong to the family Mustelidae and are related to polecats, weasels, skunks, and otters. Modern domestic ferrets have no natural habitat and cannot survive in the wild. They were bred centuries ago for pest control, and are still used today in some areas to hunt rabbits, rats, or other small animals. They are also increasingly popular as household pets and are known for their playfulness and curiosity.
