I had an opportunity to talk to a breeder who knew the guy who supplied
the ferrets for that movie (well, that's what they *said*). This woman
said he had trained a different ferret for each trick ... so there were
as many ferrets as tricks. (She told me the number, but I forget now, it
was years ago). So the rope-chewer is a different ferret from the "leap
into space" ferret, etc. I think it would have been a blast to watch him
train these ferrets! :)
