Down The Rabbit Hole - The Working Ferret 1

Apollo the hob ferret ferreting rabbits from their underground burrow. A tribute to the hard working domestic ferret.
The underground footage was acquired from a number of warrens in the same area that best illustrates the difficult environments and powerful quarry the working ferret takes in its stride.

These rabbits are collected for food, for my ferrets and people. This is a free range meat, that has lived a free life. These rabbits will be controlled even without me. By taking them myself, the meat is used. Ferreting is an environmentally friendly method of harvesting free range meat.

Never ceases to amaze me how ferrets and their family of weasels can kill things with such ease and no blood

@@gabbirae7274 Oh yeah, hunting Ferrets can slice your finger to the bone in .8 micro seconds, and that's just with their little front teeth flanked by their Canine Fangs.. They also have a Lock Jaw, that's why you see vids of people who have been bitten waving their hand around with a Ferret hanging on as Dead Weight...

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.

[@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.

[@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 😢
