>I realized, though, that most "normal" people don't know all the ferret

My Dad called me while I was at work last night to ask me if I knew the
answer to this question. I knew it was called a "Business" of ferrets.
But I could not explain to him WHY it is known as such. Can someone give
an explanation to why we call a group of ferrets a business. Thanks.
