Ebay's policy is: "Animal pelts and skins from non-endangered species (e.g., coyotes) may generally be listed on eBay, if not in violation of the seller's specific state laws." However, I've found if you complain to ebay that the ferret is a domestic pet and not a game animal, they will remove the item from auction.
