POP GOES THE WEASEL!
Welcome to the
Mustela nivalis web site. I hope you enjoy
the pictures and information available. Mustela nivalis
is a very interesting animal. This particular weasel uses
interesting tactics to capture prey items and also has the
ability to change its fur coloration by molting.
I myself found the weasel to be unique and also a very cute
critter. Although this creature looks like a fury friend, it
wouldn't enjoy being pet but is fun to watch. It does however enjoy chasing prey
items and
inhabiting burrows.
