European Polecat

The European polecat (Mustela putorius) is a species of mustelid native to
western Eurasia and North Africa. It is of a generally dark brown colour, with
a pale underbelly and a dark mask across the face. Occasionally, colour
mutations, including albinos and erythrists, occur. Compared to minks and
other weasels – fellow members of the genus Mustela – the polecat has a
shorter, more compact body; a more powerfully built skull and dentition; is
less agile; and it is well known for having the characteristic ability to
secrete a particularly foul-smelling liquid to mark its territory.
