Wizuhl-Maattra t'Terra eh Zhilikam
-
Below you will find Terran weasels, their relatives and terminology that you might find associated with them, including species that have died out and some prehistoric ancestors. The successful weasel family includes the true weasels, mink, martens, otters, ferrets, true badgers and wolverines, but does not include the similar civets, mongooses, meerkats, skunks and stink badgers. By the time of the Federation, only several weasels, river otters and wolverines were still living in the wild. All of its remaining relatives had become extinct, mostly during World War III and the Post Atomic Horror. († indicates weasels and relatives that were extinct before the 20th Century.)
