Thread: Another Ferret

PFBOP asked me to find them a couple of each type of mustilid – they wanted them for PF Waitakere Ranges for educational purposes
PFBOP wanted them as they know of a local Tauranga Taxidermist who stuffs mustilids and rats
I have been catching a few ferrets around the street but mostly they get shot and tailed for the swamp comp – I don’t catch any stoats or weasels round here
Although I always have a cage out and a couple of Fenn6 traps – things have gone quiet at present
So who better to find us a few mustilids is @BillyXmas546 up at North Head on the Manakau Harbour – he gets them frequently – but he is up there and we want them down here in Tauranga
I had a trip planned to Long Bay and Billy was heading into Auckland – so we met in Silverdale for lunch and a transfer of iced bodies in chilly bins – just one ferret and a couple of weasels
Poor bloody ferret never reckoned on traveling so far and ending up in so many freezers and chilly bins
From what I could see – he looks like a nice ferret – weasels are in the plastic bag - it will be interesting to see how he comes out when stuffed - thanks for all the effort BillyXmas546
So if anyone has a spare stoat or ferret in the freezer in the Tauranga area – we are still looking for some bodies – they need to still have a tail
