Furret (SciiFii)

The furret (Mustela pokevus) is a species of mustelid that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii due to the demand for Pokémon-like animals as pets. However, due to pet releases by careless pet owners, the furrets can be found throughout the mainland Eurasia and Americas. Furrets They have an average length of 51 cm (20 in), including a 13 cm (5.1 in) tail, weigh about 0.7 and 2.0 kg (1.5 and 4.4 lb), and have a natural lifespan of 7 to 10 years. Furrets are sexually dimorphic predators, with males being substantially larger than females. Compared to minks and other weasels, fellow members of the genus Mustela, the furret 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. It is much less territorial than other mustelids, with animals of the same sex frequently sharing home ranges. Like other mustelids, the furret is polygamous, with pregnancy occurring after mating, with no induced ovulation. It usually gives birth in early summer to litters consisting of five to 10 kits, which become independent at the age of two to three months. The furret feeds on small rodents, birds, amphibians and reptiles. It occasionally cripples its prey by piercing its brain with its teeth and stores it, still living, in its burrow for future consumption. The furrets often live alongside the smaller sentrets, which are not preyed on by furrets, instead, furrets benefit from sentrets due to the sentret's good eyesight, and in return, the furrets protect sentrets. The sentrets and furrets even share the same environment (tree hollows, dens, attics, etc), and sentrets also take care of the furret offsprings as well as the other way around. In the cold areas, where and when the sentrets hibernate, furrets still stays near the sentrets and protect them. The conservation status of the furret is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the furret's wide range, and its tolerance to habitat loss, allowing it to survive and thrive in man-made habitats, including cities and suburbs.
