they're not being saved because they're cute. they are because they disapearance injured the biodiveristy of they habitat. we were responsible for making them disapear, it's our responsability to bring them back
benjovi55 well said from a cat lover. Cats are the most egotistical, self-centered species alave today not including thier incompetent & foolish owners.
+Azazel Acheron No, no you can't, that's terrible advice. Their stomachs can only handle protein and protein heavy sources. There is too much other crap in cat food that would cause gi distress to the ferrets' stomach.
It's very common in the south of England. As a mother of two ferrets myself, I find it quite upsetting. Ferreting/working ferrets are rarely treated well and it's terrible for wildlife.
I really want a line of stuff animals that looks just like real ones! If so I'll take a Black Footed Ferret, a Arctic and Red Fox, Gray Wolf, Raven, Barn Owl, and a Fisher Cat!
AnimeCookiesAJ I don't want to cause trouble between you and your mom, but the only reason ferrets smell bad is that they have "musk glands" that produce smelly oils. I had a friend who had a ferret he bought in Nevada. He had the musk glands removed and his ferret smelled fine.
+Patrick Hempe i owned a male with glands and al, maybe i was lucky, but he smelled normal. when i put my nose to his fur, it was a tiny bit like a goat, but nothing like a goat stable, i mean you couldn t smel his presence .
BTW it's really good to hear that dying animal species are being helped by people who care I mean I care and I would be glad to help the but I'm too far away and I'm only 14 it's not like I could buy an airplane ticket to the USA :/
This guys 1:15 is a member of the conservation center yet hes standing next to a taxidermied ferret. To those sensitive critic kids out there: I know, this ferret could have died of natural causes and they just decided to taxidermy it.
I think it's because the ferrets that are domesticated have been bred to be not as aggressive to humans. Now it is possible if you raised any wild ferret as a baby it would be similar but at the same time their diet's are different and normal toys or other small animals wouldn't be safe around them. Something like that.
Black footed ferrets and the domestic ferrets are two different species altogether. The blackfoot is native to North America; the domestic ferret is from Europe. It is also known as a polecat.
Douglas Griffiths polecats are the domestic ferret's wild ancestor. You can have domesticated polecats too and these usually have ferret mixture in them.
Aaaaaaaaawwwwwww they're so cute :3 ferrets are really cute when I see one I just want to cuddle them X3👍(I left the like here because if I give any you tube video a like my Iphone will lagg so friggin much)
As usual, all that caused their demise was simply human greed. If they had been raising poultry instead of cattle, they would have killed all ferrets directly to avoid losing some few stupid chickens. That's how it is.
"a lot of people ask why they spend so many resources to save a species when the environment has adapted and works without them", her reply is you have to look at the environment and the impact it would have without them" .......seriously her reply is to ignore what they just stated? they environment works without them..
Jared Reabow I think its more of an undoing of the damage of man sorta thing. Yes the environment works without them but they would only help it to prosper. Until coyotes numbers are up that is. Then we'll call it an epidemic and shoot all the coyotes before they eat enough to starve and thin their numbers naturally. Natures way works only until it gets in our way.
1:40 - I wish the fallacy that prairie dogs made for less forage for grazers would stop being spread. Science has shown that the cute little dogs maintain healthy grasslands by taking out invasive species & aerating the soil. Cows were radio collared in Chihuahua & given the choice of where to graze. They spent 85% of their time in P Dog towns. The food was better for them there, grass more plentiful, & none of them broke their legs. Wake up!
+Jeff Cave they're not too far off really, but I don't think she meant that they were the same species, just that both species are cute, which they are 💙
I've had european ferrets for ten years and loved them. Why don't they just domesticate the prairie ferrets for pets and you'll never have to worry about their numbers again. That's after they bring their numbers up. Sell 300 ferrets to breeders to domesticate; the problem solved and everybody's happy.
+SneakyNinjaSistas I see what you're saying but I don't think it applies here. :) These ferrets went extinct because of humans ripping their habitat apart, systematically killing their prey, and introducing foreign diseases; not because of natural selection within their ecosystem.
Being cute as hell is enough a reason to keep this species around.
true.
highly doubt its nature, more than likely its destruction of environment by humans and introduced animals
they're not being saved because they're cute. they are because they disapearance injured the biodiveristy of they habitat. we were responsible for making them disapear, it's our responsability to bring them back
benjovi55 both rats and ferrets are cute as hell shush
benjovi55 well said from a cat lover. Cats are the most egotistical, self-centered species alave today not including thier incompetent & foolish owners.
Truly amazing how similar and yet how different they are compared to the domesticated ferret. Their muscle tone and agility are incredible!
Thank you for saving the ferrets!!! Such cuties 😍
Great educational video and thank you for the amazing conservation work on this incredible species!
so they are basically spaghetti cats?
Edge Mcsnob i belive people call them snake cats as a joke.
Yes lol
spaghetti polecats
I have a ferrit
Limousine cats
Awwwww cute babies! I want a ferret.
really u want
+Danica DeCosto These ones are trained to be wild. get ready to feed it live hamsters and rats.
+Azazel Acheron This breed should not though. Already struggling. Keep them wild so they can strive without human assistance.
+Danica DeCosto You don't want these ferrets or weasels, but a normal domesticated ferret, sure.
+Azazel Acheron No, no you can't, that's terrible advice. Their stomachs can only handle protein and protein heavy sources. There is too much other crap in cat food that would cause gi distress to the ferrets' stomach.
God bless. Angel 👼🏼 ferrets and u people saving beautiful lifes ferrets life .
they look like little pokemon
in pokemon the ferret is a zigzagoon
+ManTT ortuno you just blew my mind with that useless information
what does it mean?
In Europe we used to hunt rabit with domesticated ferret.
Patrick Hempe i have seen videos of that its intreasting.
The art of ferreting still goes on quite a bit
we still do ;)
yal still do now.
It's very common in the south of England. As a mother of two ferrets myself, I find it quite upsetting. Ferreting/working ferrets are rarely treated well and it's terrible for wildlife.
So adorable. All moms seem to take pride in their young.
I have two ferrets and they're the most precious things ever. 🥺💞
It also doesn't hurt the conservation effort that ferret babies are adorable! XD
3:55 :D hahahaha
he slipped
I adore my Domesticated Ferrets so much. This is great news!
They're so cute yet so vicious
They're so cute I want four !
I really want a line of stuff animals that looks just like real ones! If so I'll take a Black Footed Ferret, a Arctic and Red Fox, Gray Wolf, Raven, Barn Owl, and a Fisher Cat!
Such a perfect small creation.
I want to work here!
so cute
I love them so much
That ferret is so cute!!!!!!!!!
These have got to be the cutest predators on planet earth
But all that changed when The fire nation attacked
so cute !
They're like cats! In some ways to me, they remind me of clouded leopards with their long bodies.
Their Adorable XD
Thanks for the fascinating update on this.
Yes this is the pet I want.
Their plentiful of their cousins around.. the stoats and the weasel.
AAAAWWWWWWW!!!!
_I. Want. One!_
Me too! I'm not allowed tho cuz my mum says they small rlly bad

Patrick Hempe
I've read that the "musky" smell is only released when the animal is scared or stressed.
So a happy ferret is a non-stinky ferret.
BTW it's really good to hear that dying animal species are being helped by people who care I mean I care and I would be glad to help the but I'm too far away and I'm only 14 it's not like I could buy an airplane ticket to the USA :/
Daddayy I want one

Lol i was looking at that thinking the same
cant they just allow us to have these babies to stop the xtinction?

It's all about the Pentiums baby
great ppl !
Excelente canal. Eu recomendo.

I'd love to help. Is there a link to the website?
I have a black footed ferret... I found it with a broken leg as a baby 🙂 and kept it because he was too young when we found him to be released
رررررائع
omg so cute
What’s the full documentary of this called
Good

cute little guys
thats a wisel
Now im buying a ferret
As usual, all that caused their demise was simply human greed. If they had been raising poultry instead of cattle, they would have killed all ferrets directly to avoid losing some few stupid chickens. That's how it is.
0:58 what are those !?! lol
Lol, those are babies!
Their Adorable
I never knew there were ferrets in the US.
Why do people say why are you helping ferrets well why are we protecting pandas and not ferrets pandas do almost nothing
I donated 50$ to WWF to help save them.
And they sound sort of like kittens , but alot quieter
"a lot of people ask why they spend so many resources to save a species when the environment has adapted and works without them", her reply is you have to look at the environment and the impact it would have without them"
.......seriously her reply is to ignore what they just stated?
they environment works without them..
It's because she won't admit they do it because it's cute.
Like... Who makes videos on endangered insects? Or fungus? It's always mammals or birds.
Jared Reabow I think its more of an undoing of the damage of man sorta thing. Yes the environment works without them but they would only help it to prosper. Until coyotes numbers are up that is. Then we'll call it an epidemic and shoot all the coyotes before they eat enough to starve and thin their numbers naturally. Natures way works only until it gets in our way.
If we killed them then I guess it's our responsibility to help.
Their cages seem so bare... At least add some blankets / hammocks please
Typical becki always think wild animals should be spoiled
2:32 DID SHE JUST PRESUME ITS GENDER?!?!? IM SO TRIGGERED!
AAARRGHHH!!
I'm about to get one tomorrow there so cute am I right who has one
Well you got a normal ferret not a black-footed ferret, unless your an endangered species conservationist
+Caleb Freed Its like some of these people didnt watch the video fully or just didnt pay attention to it at all.
+Slowhoe I know! I think I'd know the difference too considering I have a ferret myself!
+PEEPNSKITTLES it's fine
have you had a ferrets before? they so cute but very mischievous lol i have two and they love to steal my stuff

Yaaaahhhh
The ferrets are so cute I have one too a girl her name is star butterfly perales she is a baby
The ferrets are cutr
+Pedromiguel Mendoza Not even the same species.
+Jeff Cave they're not too far off really, but I don't think she meant that they were the same species, just that both species are cute, which they are 💙
all ferrets are cute :) i have 2 a little girl named coco and my boy cheech
all ferrets are cute :) i have 2 a little girl named coco and my boy cheech
Ferrets are kinda safe but a little endangered many people and youtubers care for them so....#FERRETPOWER
John Pao Merginio I gave two they've made my life so much better they deserve to be kept around 💗
May I please adopt one please?
Midnight Gaming first thats not how you get pets two you don't adopt wild animals.
i have two
Dianelys Izquierdo those are wild what do you mean you have 2 ?
I've had european ferrets for ten years and loved them. Why don't they just domesticate the prairie ferrets for pets and you'll never have to worry about their numbers again. That's after they bring their numbers up. Sell 300 ferrets to breeders to domesticate; the problem solved and everybody's happy.
Paul Avery wrong they don't want them to be domesticated ,they are trying to bring back an ecosystem, and that means having wild animals.
I love them but just wonder what the cost of all this costs us when there are children and parents that can't afford food to put on the table.
Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive. How easy for you to sit back and criticize when you aren’t doing anything about either problem.
If ecosystems fall apart no one will have any food on the table.
I hate people who think they look like rats...
I love animals but you don't think they're doing to humans what they did to those prairie dogs? Ebola? Wake up my ppl!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferret
LOL.. STFU Troll
then why are they legal as pets ?
There's different types of ferrets. Some are domesticated
Domestic Ferrets(pets) are descendants of European Polecats. These ferrets are 100% Murican.
Squeak
Seems legit
Hopefully they don't ruin their local ecosystem by saving these ferrets. Hence why natural selection exists, they may have went extinct for a reason.
+SneakyNinjaSistas I see what you're saying but I don't think it applies here. :) These ferrets went extinct because of humans ripping their habitat apart, systematically killing their prey, and introducing foreign diseases; not because of natural selection within their ecosystem.
+Baron Blue Thank You!
I'm going to guess you don't understand what "natural" means in "natural selection".
There was nothing natural about the black footed ferrets decline. Our ancestors nearly wiped them out on a 'NATIONWIDE' scale.
They found the Original Ferrets in the Shirley Basin, of Wildoming. FJB,!!
FIRSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
I hate to admit it but their bigger and sleeker then their cousins. They'd sell like hot cakes.
