Discover America's rarest mammal, the black-footed ferret! Once thought to be extinct, these incredible predators are prairie specialists that rely heavily on prairie dogs for survival. With a diet consisting of about 90% prairie dog meat, their hunting skills are truly remarkable.
These nocturnal hunters navigate through narrow tunnels with stealth and precision. Their distinctive black mask enhances night vision by reducing glare, making them efficient in low-light conditions. Although their population has rebounded from just 18 individuals in 1987 due to conservation efforts, they remain endangered. Join us as we explore this inspiring survival story!
