To the person who was interested in having a vegetarian ferret, I recommend reading the Ferret Natural History FAQ article "What evidence is there that ferrets are carnivores," by Bob Church. I would suppose it is safe for humans not to eat meat (it may even be healthier), but I think animals were made to be specifically something and that we shouldn't tamper with it. Anyway, this is a great article, located in Ferret Central. [Posted in FML issue 1743]
