Which animal is your favorite member of the mustelid family?

Hmm, I don't know all of these. I like the otter because they swim on their backs cracking shells on their stomachs with rocks and eating sea food. They seem the most intelligent too.

What separates mustelids from other carnivores/mammals?

I'm not familiar with all of them.

dont know, dont care

I don't dislike them per se, but I don't have a favorite, either.

wolverine...just sounds all manly and stuff

Go the Wolverine :)

That would have to be the weasel! I don't really care much for the animals in particular, I just think that the word "weasel" is one of the funniest words in the English language. Weasel!

otters have always intrigued me.

otters... we had an otter in one of our ponds once, in the classic "I'm an otter eating a fish" pose...

Ferret!

Ferrets are really neat.

My favorite are six foot river otters from a former age.

weasels ate my favorite mustelid

My sister was bit by a mustelid.

ferrets have a funny smell....

I LOVE TO SEE OTTERS AT THE ZOO. THEY ARE GROOVY.

I like them all - they all have particularities that make them rather endearing.

Musk glands, I think. They all stink - that's not too endearing!!

I think that mukluk is funnier...

Just for you; http://surveycentral.org/survey/13516.html

I've only seen them in stores. I really like skunks, but they are the ones that smell.

Ahh, the smell women love to spray on themselves.

I picked Maarten.. He's nice.

Wolverine!! But only because of it's connotations with X-Men and Chris Benoit!

Ferrets!

otter

Boy! That was only a couple of weeks ago, and I had almost forgotten about it!

A woman's musk is much better!

Oohh, time for a billboard shoot.

I find Skunks fascinating. I havn't seen any nature programmes on them but I would make a point of watching one if it was on.

The only ones I'm really familiar with at all are skunks. We had a dearth of wildlife where I grew up.

Way to go, Dino! Just stick to watching them on tv, if you want my advice.

What, human pheremones or that crap that is made to smell like a male musk deer's ass?

Yeah, I think that's the safest option. We don't have them in this country fortunately. But then all you ever hear is the nasty - 'spraying you with pee' with. But I wonder what their lifestyle is. Do both parents stay with the young or is it strictly maternal? Stuff like that y'know.

It has its own subtleties...

You can say that again! Eau de TOILET

how dare you yell at irene...that's just rude

Aw, c'mon! Don't get snarky!!
See? It's obvious that he's not yelling but emphasizing part of his statement - Like I said; caps do have their use!
You're just in a snit because you don't seem to use them at all, nor punctuation. Which is fine, what matters is that you make yourself understood.
SO IF I'M YELLING AT YOU - I WANT YOU TO KNOW IT!!!!

Otters are cute, but I've never met one in person. Skunks are actually quite cute as well, and I *have* met those. We used to feed them all the time.

Cute!

Ferret - i own one.

Ferret......but then again is a racoon considered one also? Just wondering. I love racoons!

Ermine.

The Ferret

Otter's are just the cutest lil critters! Fun to watch! Ferrets are cute and also fun to watch. Skunks are cute too and also make nice pets, well after taking away the gland ;) I knew a family who had one as a pet. The others I really don't know much about cept Wolverines are supposed to be ferocious critters.

Rikki Tikki Tavi (if I spelled that right) was one right?

Kipling. cool.

That is one of my fave shows! Mongoose saved the day, got those bad ssssssssssnakes!

And hey, I told you so....

There's just something about fudging a badger up his ass that just makes a man feel oh so good. Just to bust your load in the poor little guys butt-hole is just the greatest. Anyone who hasnt experienced it should! Every man at one time or another should fudge a badger. You just have to tie his arms off first so he cant scratch because it hurts to have claw marks on your dick, plus then you have to have to explain why your dick is chopped up to the dog thats going down on you. So just tie his arms back and fudge the crap out of him!

This is primarily a debate forum. I admit you are astonishingly sensational. I figure you probably have no other outlets for this activity, but you're missing out on participating in the virtues of this site not found elsewhere. I suppose your lonely wake of disruption feels empowering. Hopefully some year you can find more constructive and mutually satisfying participatory uses for your sensationalism.
So, you prefer guy badgers, eh?

Tell me about your ferret and I'll tell you about mine!

Her name is Tinker. I had a brother for her, but he passed about 26 June last year, at only 2 years old of a wasting disease. There was nothing that could be done for him. I miss him like crazy. Tinker has never been the same since, she's quiet, not into trouble like she used to be. She's very lonely, but won't accept another ferret.

Poor little ferret! Very cute name for a ferret.
I have a 3 year old sable named Vinny- very cuddly for a ferret.

Has she/he always been a lone ferret?
