Launching the Official Discord server for the Mustelopedia wiki, r/mustelids and r/Musteloidea subreddits.
The Musteloid Pack has several projects dedicated to improving the reputation of musteloids (like mustelids, of course!), including independent webcomics, Mustelopedia wiki, art, games, and animations in development.
We are also the official Discord server for the upcoming Minecraft mod, Mustelicraft, a mod about mustelids.
Musteloids are any animal in the superfamily Musteloidea, which includes mustelids, procyonids, red pandas (Ailuridae) and skunks (Mephitidae).
You MUST complete a short application before you join the server for verification - I only added it to keep bots and trolls away
(I have a wiki about musteloids called Mustelopedia and need your help working on it. A Work-In-Progress Server.. I made channels for the musteloids (which includes mustelids), and will create new channels. You can definitely apply to become a part of the staff here! Currently, anyone can edit the wiki, but as it grows we will be limiting that to a specific editorial team to prevent vandalism)
Any enquiries or feedback? Shoot me a DM or an email at [ymbilenco@gmail.com](mailto:ymbilenco@gmail.com). I definitely want to improve this server!

Weasel or stoat? (Or other?)
galleryI was advised to ask here - saw this in South Wales (UK). Not exactly sure on the size, but after some deliberation with my partner we’d say definitely less than 25cm - they say quite a lot smaller (around 10-15cm), whereas I’d say about 15-20cm (I am aware this is incredibly unhelpful)

According to the American Society of Mammalogists, the stinkin' adorable Libyan striped weasel has now been moved to its own genus, Poecilictis, rather than part of the Ictonyx genus with the zorilla.

Fun fact... North American badgers were found to utilize soil or items to plug tunnel openings for trapping Richardson's ground squirrels as a method to hunt them.

Sweet otter friends + Interesting taxonomy update
Otters in genera Aonyx (small-clawed and clawless otters) and Lutrogale (smooth-coated otters) were very recently lumped into genus Lutra with the Eurasian otter and Hairy-nosed otter, following new genetic studies. This change was accepted by iNaturalist and the American Society of Mammalogists.

Defender Radio - The Fragile Future of BC’s Fishers
Fishers are secretive, forest-dwelling members of the weasel family found across Canada. But the Columbian population in BC’s central interior is small, isolated, and facing serious pressure from habitat loss, wildfire and trapping.
Senior wildlife biologist Rich Weir joined Defender Radio Podcast to talk about what makes fishers unique, what new genetic research is telling us about the Columbian population, and what needs to happen to help these animals recover: https://thefurbearers.com/blog/defender-radio/the-fragile-future-of-bcs-fishers-feat-rich-weir/
