Black-footed ferret friends- A few updates on your favorite cousin. My blog is back! Read about my adventures in the field with black-footed ferrets at: <http://www.smallanimalchannel.com/critter-blog/ferret-field-blog/livieri-default.aspx> And if we get some good feedback on my blog then I promise that I will update it regularly! Our friend, Larry Haverfield, in Kansas has been fighting valiantly to keep his prairie dogs and black-footed ferrets. The courts have sided with him again and his wildlife appear safe for now.
