Who are Ferrets Related To?

First myth - ferrets are not related to skunks - this makes me sad only in the fact that they are in no way related to this adorable albino baby who reminds me of my Violet girl:



They are, however, related to the following cute critters:

Stoat

Polecat


Mink
Ermine

Otters

Wolverines

Badgers
They have pretty cute relatives if I do say so.  I wondered if any of these were on the keep as pets list - I Googled and looked on YouTube - big mistake....let's just say my someday list got a little bit longer...UGH
