Hi Mc .. I've never heard this objection. For years the objections have been that ferrets will escape, breed, set up wild colonies and kill the indigeneous species of foul, that's why the Sierra Club and the Audubon Society have gotten into bed with the CF&W Dept. When did they start accusing ferrets of being able to interbreed with BFFs and you're right how do they think EDFs will find BFFs to court?
