European mink are not true mink. They are actually more closely related to polecats and ferrets. European mink have been bred to European polecats in captivity and have produced offspring.
"It is sometimes possible to distinguish the European and American species based on the fact that the American Mink usually lacks a large white patch on its upper lip, while the European Mink always possesses one."
Hehe, your American mink doesn't like you. The warning screams scared my mink and she sprayed a little, Whoops! I love how the European one keeps hoarding food. XD
actually i thought they were both european minks .. the right one has white spots around his nose and neck too and i also thought american minks are bigger than the european ones
Fishy fishy must have! Lol. Gorgeous animals. I knew they were fast and could be vicious but whew, words can not say how much. Pretty intimidating little fellows. I just love them.
lol that was collecting food! The European looks a little more tame and safe than the american one. Both mine are american, soon expecting pups.. I'd like to se more of the minks you have in the future too!
That's what my ferret sounds like when he pissed

The European one looks very ferret-like. And the American one has a rather scary scream.

these things are freaky and apparently bad pets. also they eat insects and live rodents which is quite nasty to have around a house.
