Hello All:
My 2[ worth here. As for "domesticated, I feel that a true domesticated
animal is one that HAS to live with a human. In that since, a ferret is
the only animal I know of that does live with humans that HAS to be
there. Turn loose a dog, cat, snake, bird, etc and it'll live without a
human with very little problem. Turn loose a ferret and it'll die of
starvation, exposure or be eaten. They cannot live without a human
taking care of them. That's what I call domesticated. I don't know why
the governments can't get that through their thick heads.
Sin,
A Ferret Lover
