Today (April 2) is National Ferret Day in the USA.
Started in 2014 but I just heard about this a few weeks ago.

I'll take this opportunity to concentrate on 
Black Footed Ferrets, the only wild ones in North America.

Pic of 3 babies. How cute is this?

Here's a nice, fairly small web page all about them.
Includes history and pics.
I think they are still classified as an endangered species.

Note: Ferret Day in the UK is May 5.
      Interesting that Queen Elizabeth the first
      had a pet ferret.  Very cool of her, imo!  :-D
