This was in last night's FML.  I feel that it should be commented on.
 
It's very possibly true, as weasels are wild animals that may or may not
attach livestock.  The domestic ferret is in that same family, much in the
same way the house cat is in the same family with lions and tigers or wolves
are in the same catagory as poodles.  Weasels do undoubtedly attack for life
supporting food, but Domestic Ferrets DO NOT.... they don't know how to,
they've been domestic too long.
 
I don't know what FOX station that was, but whoever saw the report should
contact the station and make that clear to them...
