I realize that when doing an experiment it is good to have a *control* to
better assess the results, but it is usually a better idea to bathe all
or none of the ferrets in a business, since scent plays such a major role
in dominance issues.  *The smelliest ferret always wins* is the way I
heard it expressed.
