In a recent trip to Pets.Com, I read an article in the "ferrets" section
that specifically stated that ferrets that escape outdoors would survive
only a few days. The link to the article, as well as a fragment indicating
that statement are below. You must copy the entire link into your browser
address window, from the http through the -13365 in order to get to this
article.

"The American black-footed ferret (Mustela nigripes) is a wild cousin of
the domestic ferret and an endangered species. In fact, domestic ferrets
have few survival instincts. If one were to escape outdoors, it would
survive only a few days because ferrets have poor eyesight, reduced hunting
instincts, and little fear."
