Twenty-six black-footed ferrets are being released this week in New Mexico, and among them is one of Cyan's male kits! <http://www.elpasotimes.com/ci_13981305> For those who remember Guy Graves from the International Ferret Congress's Derby City Forum in Louisville in 2006, here are some pics and a downloaded mp3 of Guy talking about BFFs and the Louisville Zoo's recovery efforts. His interview starts at about 24:50, and is quite detailed and interesting! <http://www.wfpl.org/2009/11/29/homegrown-112909-plant-extinction-black-footed-ferrets/> Also, Arizona Game and Fish did a very nice video about the spotlighting process. <http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=189803361301> Linda ------------------------------ End of FERRET-L Digest - 13 Dec 2009 to 14 Dec 2009 (#2009-6546) **************************************************************** Topics of the day: 1.

WE WOULD LIKE TO CELEBRATE!!!!! Part of our plans call for a tribute web page off the Ferret Wise Site!! www.ferretwise.org Thanks to Kat Parsons for helping us continue our public education via the internet! We hope folks will send pics of their adopted ferrets ( past / present) and a short tribute to their special one, or a note on how we were able to assist!.. Additionally we would like folks to send a pic of the ferrerts we were able to assist over the years-- whether they were adopted or not There will be a donation button on the page as well and we hope those who submit to this special tribute page will make a $5 donation to help us provide the online services! Thank you all for allowing us to continue our mission to ferrets! Happy New Year may it be bigger and better for us ALL! Alicia at Ferret Wise [Posted in FML 6547]
