Short-tailed Weasel (9514000664)
Description:
Description: The stoat, short tailed weasel, or ermine are all names for this little creature. One neat adaptation that it uses to blend in with the surrounding landscape is to change its coat with the season. Pictured is an ermine in summer attire. Date: 27 August 2006, 18:49.
