This is the skull of a domestic ferret!
The ferret is a small mustelid that was domesticated from the wild European polecat about 2500 years ago. It was originally used to hunt burrowing animals but is most often kept as a companion animal today.
This is a beautiful subadult example of the species in excellent condition. It died naturally in captivity. It was beetle-cleaned, degreased, and whitened with hydrogen peroxide. Please review all pictures and description for condition.
This specimen is not from an ESA-listed species and is legal to sell and possess. US sales only, sorry!
SOLD!
