Black-footed ferret


I know you're probably bored with me going on about ferrets but this is an interesting anniversary - it's 25 years this September that this creature was rediscovered - it being originally thought extinct. Since then it has been successfully introduced into areas to control the prairie dog population on which it almost exclusively feeds on. So check out the above website to learn more about these beautiful creatures and what can be done in the US to help bring them back from the brink. Why not adopt one?
