Down The Rabbit Hole - The Working Ferret 1 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@racher4593]

My grandfather hunted with ferrets using the same methods in Canada over 90 years ago. It's really cool to still see people hunting this way. This is the best possible enrichment you can give to your ferret.

[@hrtcrescenttrotters5088]

Can we take a moment and appreciate how amazing those tunnels are .o.

[@mastercharlesdiltardino8058]

They even had security cameras, it's incredible what animals can do.

[@xSpookic]

Yeah and not appreciate the farret cause it killed it’s home owners!

[@bingefox4056]

Like a moment of silence and reflection. Oh wow! Those tunnels are absolutely amazing. This is the first time animals made drug tunnels. Where they dug through bed rock or go under a river. Forget Art, tall skyscrapers, the James Web telescope. We have rabbit holes.

[@metalfox1911a1]

to anyone who's thinking about stupidly thumbing down this video I think you should know that ferrets are carnivores hunting is a natural thing that they are designs for if you just purchased a ferret for the first time congratulations you have one of the funniest predators in the face of the Earth and also one of the most formidable small predators as they can go up against prey bigger than themselves and survived I've seen a mink survived an attack by a fox and may have died of its injuries but the fox ran away the ferrets natural prey is the prairie dog the reason the West has such a prairie dog problem it's because they got rid of the ferret and they are just starting to reintroduce and train them

[@youngpope3093]

Well said!! The ferrets are incredible fearless!!

Ive had my ferret for about 3 years now and we sometimes have a rat problem, I wanna let her do her thing but I’m scared she’d get killed 😢

its not a natural thing for a net to be above the burrow :')

What a good boy- I have the utmost respect for both mustelids and domesticated hunting animals, and this footage displays the remarkable traits of both, the brave tenacity of the weasel and the intellect of the domestic animal. Great job.

I have 2 a tiny brown and white and and i think they are called albino he is pure snow white with red eyes they were a rescue so i let them after a few mods free range no cage it brought them back to health and they are both thriving. My question to you is can they still be taught maybe not hunt but to maybe flush out or just work with them outside. I am just tryin to allow them to live to there potential or just their best life.

[@ZeusPolecat]

Albinos yeah. They are domesticated, they will be happy with some cardboard boxes, tubes, toys and a friend.

[@shawnmclaughlin7418]

@@ZeusPolecat lol its what i thought. I was hoping that maybe deep down there was alittle instinct left in them that i could have some outdoor fun idk maybe i will introduce them to some mouse holes maybe tie a long string to there collar so i dont loose em lol.

[@ZeusPolecat]

@@shawnmclaughlin7418There is some instinct left, but they don't need it to be happy. They will hunt all sorts. As a child I would just follow my ferret and he would seek out all sorts of critters. They have certainly lost their instinct to identify threats however...

Meeposaurus I have a house ferret as well her name is Suli which means Rascal in Estonian I do purchase Mice from the pet store just for something that she can practice some hunting skills with because she is a predator and I'm not going to deny her that she probably wouldn't care much either way she just wants to play as she's rather young all she really wants to do is play play play

are you buying live mice from the pet shop? because if so and you live in the uk its illegal to feed live animals

my ferret is much too small and weak to hunt food herself (plus, she's ditzy and nonviolent) i don't hunt for my own moral reasons but it's very interesting to see how trained this ferret is and it motivates me to try to train her more strictly.

[@sjewitt22]

Is it hard to stop the ferrets mauling then eating them underground?

[@bullterror5]

That will happen to a certain extent anyway, but it's advised not to go Hunting with Hungry Ferrets because they will often stay down there & eat a meal before curling up for an 8 hour sleep.... And then you have to wait 8 Hours to get ya Ferret back...
