more mustelids… in fact, all of them! at least as far as we know now. science is always updating, just redid the amazon weasel based on new info! there may be more species but they’re currently disputed and have no good photo references to go off of. from early this year #mustelidae #animalart

Oh no!! River the Mink at our sister sanctuary has another dental abscess & they are seeking $ for her vet fund. They are a 501c3 NPO. River came to me (Mustelid Madness Rescue) after she was illegally sold in AR, and I placed her with RMMR. Their website: rockymountainminkrefuge.com/support-us/
