🦡Ferret
雪貂(英語:ferret;學名:Mustela putorius furo,Mustela furo)又名蒙眼貂、貂鼠、寵物貂、地中海貂,是食肉目鼬科貂鼠动物,为歐洲鼬的馴養亞種,作为宠物,以及流感及常见肺病研究的理想动物模型。 雪貂是兩性異形體的,雄貂比雌貂大。颈与躯干等长,性情温和,行动敏捷;汗腺不发达,不耐热;有肛門腺可发出持续气味。牠們一般呈褐色、黑色、白色或混色,公貂連同尾巴長可到51公分,重1—2公斤,母貂體型較小,體重約在600公克—1公斤,壽命為7—15歲。 雪貂的馴養歷史不明,但很有可能是早於2500年前就已經開始,最早可追溯到西元前的古埃及時代原生種鼬鼠。目前仍有一些地區利用歐洲雪貂來獵捕兔,但漸漸被馴養為寵物的寵物貂已經不適合野外生活。雪貂非常容易與歐洲鼬交配,因為兩者有着密切关联。但歐洲野生雪貂與寵物貂的過度繁殖在紐西蘭被認為会對當地生物造成損害,所以現在有某些地區禁止飼養雪貂。雪貂一詞常常讓人誤會寵物貂是全白色,其實除了白子,全白的寵物貂是非常罕見的。
