Creator Transcript
  • Mustela vison [underlined] Aug [August] 2-13. Indianpoint Lake. Trapped [female symbol] + 3 yng [young] [male symbol]'s. Young were in fresh dark pelage [female symbol] in worn summer coat. Young [male symbol]'s bigger than their mother. The den of this family was in an abandoned beaver house. 5 entrances had been dug into it. All feces were in one place nearby. On the evening of Aug [August] 12, we saw a [female symbol] with 2 juv [juvenile] [male symbol]'s + 2 [female symbol]'s. The [male symbol]'s were following the mother closely + kept up a continual subdued barking squeal. I saw the old one quickly climb a low bush + attempt to catch a song sparrow. About 15 mins [minutes] after the [female symbol] + yng [young] [male symbol]'s had passed along came the 2 yng [young] females, following the same route. One of them scented us + dived under the canoe. Later in the evening we found these 5 mink at home in the roof of a beaver lodge. They had the top of this riddled with runways. Nesting material was shredded willow bark - Feces were all in one place.
