    @billcovington1380 Месяц назад

    Thank you for making this, I found it fascinating. It was particularly interesting to learn the specifics of shaping the mink's caching behavior. I was a little surprised Spark doesn't nip you at all when you're handling him (was it Sherlock that nipped at anything that moved, including your hand?). Spark seems to be a very calm animal but maybe that will change as he matures (as you noted). Is it correct that Spark only bonds closely with one care-giver (you, in this case) and is indifferent/stand-offish towards all other people, like he is to dogs & sheep? By the way, this is a well-produced video, too, it's clear you've been doing this quite a while now.
