onthehunt 40 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 image.jpg Opinions on euro polecats as you can see from the pic one is a euro and one is a regular polecat. The European polecat has a hell of alot more instinct that the regular. You can tell by the way she behaves compared to the others. What's your thoughts on this?? i'd agree there's something wilder about my eu compared to my ferrets of the same age, he is also more highly strung, very alert. But I don't work him just keep him as a pet. My hob above is also stronger for his age than my adult ferrets and has a little more muscle mass. just things I've noticed with my keen eye lol Link to post

onthehunt 40 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 What you got against people keeping eu poleys, mate?? And what evidence have you got to support the fact they are not pure or hybrid? Link to post
Rake aboot 4,936 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Show me one person that claims to have one that can prove it ! even tell me where they trapped it ?? none ?? Nope. I`ve nothing against anyone, but all these ferrets that folk claim to be polecats, are just ferrets. Prove ,me wrong. Link to post
foxtails 272 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 ill show you a picture of one of my eu polecats , see what you think ? ill upload the pic now 1 Link to post
onthehunt 40 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 True there are some folks that falsely claim to have pure eu's when they are just ferrets in order to fleece people but there will also be some who have trapped and bred em. It aint an extinct species mate! Can you explain how these animals like the ones uploaded on this thread both have the eu look to them? i'd say there are breeders who sell them as pure when they are really hybrids but you can usually tell by observing the animal's behaviour too whether they have eu in them or not. The ones sold in this country are probably at most under 70% as there is a lot of ferret in the line BUT they still behave differently etc to the normal ferret. Let me tell you, if you visited my brother works ferrets and lives on the continent, you would see what real full polecats look and behave like-he has them as pets and they ARENT TAME. nasty buggers lol. I have mates who have some that are wilder and shyer than my very tame one, then again, I haven't given him enough time to turn as he is still only 27 weeks all jokes aside, I dont think they should cost more unless they are 100% the genuine article but thats just me.

Malt 379 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Can you explain how these animals like the ones uploaded on this thread both have the eu look to them? What exactly is the 'EU look?' It takes a DNA test to distinguish a genuine polecat from a polecat coloured ferret with 100% certainty, yet so many who have bought these darker animals can seemingly do the same by looking at a picture on the Internet..

If you look up research into the wild eu polecat done on the continent, it clearly details that there is 2 distinct colour variations in them. The first is a meadow/hedgerow hunter that is lighter in colour due to the habitat it hunts/lives in, the second is much darker and lives/hunt in forest/woodland, so basically their coats suit where they live to blend in with the surroundings, now when anyone claims they have trapped/caught a wild polecat why are they always the darker ones they managed to catch? I dont recall anyone showing a light coloured eu polecat they have caught? perhaps these may be next years must have a light eu polecat that was trapped and bred from? Y.I.S Leeview Link to post
