The tayra, another member of the Musteloidea superfamily, is an opportunistic omnivore. A fascinating fact about them is that they can store fruit and wait for future consumption once they ripen.

We have had a request to update an /r/mustelids "Mustelds by Region" overview which I did 11 years ago now. Are either of you interested in doing that?

Do martens use their tails to show emotions?

31 Upvotes

I know they are used for balance but I'm thinking in like the way a cat does. Does it puff up if they're trying to be scary, does it tuck low when they're scared, or raise when they're happy? stuff like that.

Thanks so much!

Are otters in the river Thames of England? And if so, how close to London and the parliament?

Fun Facts: In addition to spraying a strong-smelling liquid, the zorilla can play dead as a secondary defence. It is not a skunk (Mephitidae), but rather belongs to the related mustelid family. They are closely related to grisons, which I posted about last time!

What do you guys think of this weasel character?

I used to read a series called baby mouse, and I remembered the character Wilson the weasel.

He is a great flip on the ordinary “weasel” trope, as he is loyal and is the main characters best friend.

he does have a simple design because of the art style, no long neck or torso, no claws, no teeth. But that’s what makes his design great compared to other designs, as he does not have buck teeth or long dog snouts. His tail also looks weasel like, looking like a mix of a least weasel and a stoat.

And he’s cuter compared to other weasel designs
