Some people will already know about this from other lists.

For those who are not in the UK this riveting program which teaches
about some of the many things that go wrong when animals are bred
for appearance rather than for health, longevity and behavior can be
found in 6 parts on You Tube. Although about dogs the program provides
information which also is relevant to ferrets.

For those interested, there are genetics posts in the FHL Archives
and also in Ferret Genetics. The Ferret Genetics URL can be found
in the Links section of the FHL website.

On YouTube start here:

and then from the menu on your right select the
later parts in numerical order.
