Weasels
# Overview
Weasels are a group of carnivorous predatory mustelids native to the 0th, 2nd, and -1st realms. The term includes common weasels, stoats, ferrets, mink, and archweasels. They inhabit the grasslands and woodlands of their respective realms, feeding on small mammals.
# Appearance
Weasels are small, with a length of 17-22cm from head to tail. They are long and nimble, with a short coat of dark fur that becomes thick and white in the winter.
# Behaviour
Weasels are diurnal lone hunters, mainly attacking rodents and hares. They opt to confuse their prey by jumping up and down sporadically in a behaviour known as the ‘war dance,’ and use their swift, nimble bodies to take down larger animals.

Weasels are hunted and eaten by some larger predators, including

# Cultural Perception
