Glad I got him before he got into pheasant pen

Odd that he set off a coyote trap though

Nice catch. I too, am surprised he hasn't changed color completely yet.

Oh! Good job, those are blood thirsty little monsters for sure, would have had a heyday in your bird pens. I remember my Oma having her entire coop full of 60+ laying hens wiped out one stormy night. If she would have caught that little weasel, she would have killed him slowwwwwly.......

Little Weasel!

Video’d one running around the contractors area at work yesterday. Checking under all the trailers and places the rabbits like to hide. He was pure white. Neat to see. Had one living at the house for a few years. Didn’t mind as he kept the mice and snake numbers down. When I started seeing mice and garter snakes daily again this summer I figured he must have left or died of old age? Either way he wasn’t around.

I cought one in a coyote trap once. He landed on the pan and the jaws clamped on the body killing him. Even though the trap had a death grip on him he did not let go of the mouse in his mouth.

Nice catch. Do you need a trappers license to catch or kill a weasel?

Send his friends up north. I've been blasting through squirrels and wearing out mouse traps this year. Even the good barn cat can't keep up.

As for color, I saw a snowshoe hare last night that had about the same amount of white. Generally most critters aren't pure white til nov 1, north of Edmonton anyway.

so need trappers license. I have damage control license for pheasant farm as well as trappers license. Otherwise I wouldnt take this guy until he was pure white as I dont think they are of any value in this color. Maybe taxidermist can use them as prey animal?

I was out and about two days ago and I had this short tailed weasel checking me out. He thought that he was being sneaky and he didn't know that he was all white. Just north of Edmonton in WMU 508.

Often the remaining colored fur isn't really well attached, at least it isn't on rabbits. No use other than adding to the coyote bait pile.

Cool little animal. I always went to a neighbors place when we were hunting deer and used their set up. They had a weasel in the shop that would take pieces of meat from your fingers.
