|
| But what the kiwi had most to fear turned out to be the stoat, a mustelid slightly bigger than a weasel but smaller than a ferret. |
|
| Weasels, Britain's smallest mustelid, are occasionally seen in the reserve. |
|
| Stoats are members of the mustelid family and mustelid translates as musty smell. |
|
| In the study area during the 16 survey cruises, 29 marine mammal species were encountered, including 22 cetaceans, 6 pinnipeds, and a single mustelid species. |
|
| Stoat territoriality has a generally mustelid spacing pattern, with male territories encompassing smaller female territories, which they defend from other males. |
|
| A recent survey by The Vincent Wildlife Trust shows that this unfussy, bandit-masked mustelid has made great gains in central and southern England. |
|
| Both animals are related species and are members of the Mustelid family, which also includes mink, badgers and weasels. |
|
| Ferrets belong to the Mustelid family of mammals which includes weasels, stoats, polecats and badgers. |
