just out of curiousity how long do you think a ferret would last in the wild

There are pockets of feral ferrets round Britain.

I think it depends on the ferret , i have had them handed in here near skeletal & plastered in ticks so they have obviously not all faired well , perhaps the tick infestation on most of them is why there so thin usually, just not got the energy to hunt , interestingly the ferrets i have had that havent been infested in ticks usually carry a little more weight

Depends on where they are released, and whether they have the making of a wild animal!

Picked a hissing and spitting albino hob out of a drop box, even had to pin him down with a forked stick to pick him out.

The animal was rock solid, and built like a brick outhouse, through life and food.

Never have i picked up a more solid ferret, EVER.

Don't release any!

They normally end up as roadkill................

i think it would depend on the season there lost , and what country but they could would last a good while

I've seen a couple and they were heavily marked from rat bites. I know that a couple of years ago there was a study being done on feral populations in Co. Fermanagh.

Mate lost a ferret once, pre locator days, found it dead, think maybe it was running around waiting to be picked up.
