Is this getting just a little silly? What is the basis for assuming that our domestic ferrets need the same diet as their ancestors or feral ferrets? Is it proven that feral ferrets are healthier, or have longer lives? Once upon a time man's diet was whatever he could outrun and kill. What was his life span? 15 years? Our ferret's worst enemy is not TF or IAM, or whatever (within reason, of course), but the greedy hi-volume breeders that snatch kits from their mothers when they're 2 weeks, run them through the bloody spay/neuter/descent assembly line and pedal the butchered survivors to sleazy little pet shops that understand $$$$$$ but don't know anything about ferrets and don't care.
