Dick Bossart: About the 'tamer' domestic minks. NO. THe domestic mink is actually 'wilder' than the wild variety. Mink have never been bred for disposition. They are bred VERY STRICTLY for color - they are not nice animals. I know a breeder of both ferrets and mink and as beautiful as his min are I would never consider letting one into my house. bill and diane killian zen and the art of ferrets [Posted in FML issue 1145]
