Description
The American Mink (Neovision Vision) is a semiaquatic, carnivorous mammal of the Mustelidae family which includes weasels, otters and ferrets. Since their fur is coated to repel water and they have webbed feet, minks are excellent swimmers and divers sometimes diving underwater to depths of 30 metres. They prey on fish, frogs and other aquatic life as well as small mammals, birds and eggs. Historically, their thick, shiny fur has been highly prized in the fashion industry.
