Wildlife officials say hundreds and possibly more than 1,000 mink are on the loose from a Monteregie fur farm after an intruder broke in and opened all the cages.

    "He also said the mink are aggressive, and it is possible the released animals will attack other smaller animals."

    Possible?!? Mink are nasty little creatures!

    Smooth move treehuggers! I hope no one gets hurt trying to avoid mink on the roadways.

    I read somewhere that mink kill for fun, that is, they'll just leave the kill there without eating it. Besides humans, very few animals do this. 8O

    Minks are rat-like vermin with a nice coat. :twisted:

    Actually, rats are of the order "Rodentia", minks are "Carnivora" and are more closely related to otters, weasels, badgers, wolverines, and polecats. :D

    And there's a reason their cousins the Ferret have been domesticated and not them. If they didn't have those nice coats, we wouldn't even bother with them at all. Evil little bastards!

    Yes, they are nasty little creatures! Around here the biggest problem is when they get access to boats and once onboard proceed to make a hell of a mess. They also make a lot of noise when they are scrapping with each other.

    One of the local dogs, a Golden Retriever, has developed quite the talent for catching and killing them. He always gets praised by everyone for doing so though his owner has to give him a wash down afterward as he tends to roll around on them after the kill. It's kind of funny in a warped way to see him with blood and dirt all over his coat and him looking happy and proud of it! :lol:

    Domestic cats do it every single day.
