I thought at first it was a joke, never seen anything like it before. I think stevethefish mate has European polecats as if they are jet black they cannot be marbled!! I have a couple of euro crosses and they do take more handling but as good as any other ferret with the right handling.

 

I don't think that there are any marbled polecats in the UK as they are not a native species and I cannot see why people would use them to cross with a working ferret.
