- Their habitat once stretched across the Prairies. But when humans wiped out the one thing they eat, the black-footed ferret disappeared. The only native North American ferret, this mysterious animal became the most endangered species in the world.

I ran a rescue centre for ferrets and polecats in the 90s came across and loved every one of them ,but would love to meet a black foot ,my dream ,keep up the work travis and co , Mark cdf uk
This man is a hero.
That happy dance was sooo cute :)
It's is a shame that this channel is anthropomorphising these animals, it looks similar to a disease common among mustelids here in the UK, where nematodes burrow in to the brain and cause encephalopathy which causes this kind of behaviour. Here is a university of Manchester video about it if you are interested ua-cam.com/video/z6e2vUEuaaA/v-deo.html
@@andrewharris79 domesticated ferrets do the same thing when they’re excited so i think it’s just actually a way to release energy
@@myrandakaye That's been my conclusion also. Although mine will also do it when she has an itch she can't scratch and finally snaps lmao. The weasel wardance, so odd and adorable. A pure joy to watch them get that excited.
Wouldn’t say it’s the most endangered, but it’s great to see them making a comeback. Doing much better than the vaquita for sure.
Yes and the spix's macaw
Em &Em Truth
It's weird description drift. They used to say it was the most endangered mammal in North America. But even that isn't true anymore.
Thank u 4 helpn 2 save our wildlife & our planet 💖 ❤ 💓
10 compared to 12 here. Not sure that is “much better”. Only 9 lived their first year, plus only 3 new born
That’s is awesome that you guys are documenting and bringing back and having them Survive great work and dedication
I love ferrets, polecats etc.
Amazing courageous animals.
Good for Travis! I'm grateful for his work!
A very interesting and encouraging video. Wasn't previously aware of this species. Wonderful videos. Keep up the extraordinary work!
Cheryl Forfang ? To much smart words
Another interesting fact about this species conservation is that out of the original 18 caught 2 died and could not be bred from and at the time scientists froze these 2 and they are now trying to introduce the genes from these 2 that were frozen back into the wild gene pool through modern DNA scientific processes creating more diverse genetics in the species as you can imagine anything bred from 16 individuals is highly inbred and a has a minuscule genetic diversity
Im so thankful 4 people like u all, saving our planet & our wild life ❤❤❤❤❤
Who would thumb down this video? Go black-footed ferrets!
@fona mcjimmyjimmy I think he/she was answering my rhetorical question.
Well, GO FERRETS!
There was a magical time when you could actually see that. History will forget
Prairie dogs
Prairie dog fans is who
First prairie bandit kits born in Canada 🇨🇦 in 80years! 😄 miracles 🌈 do happen! I love happy animals endings! 😅💞👍🏻 thank u for a lovely documentary 👏🏻 & God bless all the people involved in animals conservations & channels like these amen! 🥇 🏆
This is the cutest animal I’ve ever ever seen. Just ever
Bless this man!
Such a beautiful animal
Thanks for sharing this amazing documentary!
Fascinating video. Lots of new info for me. Thanks.
I will start a charity for these poor creatures.
They need to live on
Let me know when you have it set up and registered. I will donate. I look forward to hearing from you soon then.
It will maybe take a while though. I'll need help making the website.
Great video and I enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing
Use to volunteer work at the Louisville (Ky) Zoo, they were part of the captive breeding program then (may still be, don't know), had a couple of them (NOT on display for fear of disease, Etc.). Once thought extinct in America a small colony of a dozen or more was found in a remote area out west, split up for fear of disease killing them all if put together. I've since heard that many re-introductions has happened (they are absolutely the cutest predator you'll ever see).
What a beautiful world.
What a place. Oh those little critters are the BEST!
Great addition to You Tube.
Unique topic, with limited uploads, thanks.
These are not the ferrets sold at pet stores. But I like all ferrets . I had many pet ferrets in the past .
Thanks!
prairie dogssss soooo cuteeee and tinyyyyyy feel badddd
I love to eat them. There meat is so tasty.
@@hailgiratinathetruegod7564 eww yoo wtffff
Hail Giratina The true god
For real?
Have you really ever eaten it?
When the ish hits the fan I need to know if I can eat prairie dogs. 😁
@@CSDonohue11 man, that was a joke
I mean ik it’s a joke and all but why are people disgusted?
History and misinformation sad. Grateful to see these critters back. I pray they thrive.
Incredible work! 👍
Saw one by the creek a few years ago, it was the coolest thing ever and sent me into a devotion to learning about them
I an animal lover and I love ferrets
God bless those beautiful noodles ferrets and u people .
Cool Documentary.
SAVE THE ANIMALS AND EARTH BTW THERE SOO CWUTE!
I have a little ferret of my own and seeing these hunters I’m in love and disappointed how lazy mine is 😆
Faustini I'm planning to get a ferret
Any tips?
@@emaraledseeker5100 when you get it from a young age train it to not bite, when I first got mine he bit hands till they bled. now he is sweet so training is important. it would help to have a call sound (mine is a clicker noise) that makes em come to you because if he runs away there's nothing stopping him from turning back, every time I make his call sound he gets his favourite treat.
There are videos online on ferret tips and how to train, good luck with your little fella
Faustini thanks
Faustini You’re supposed to get two ferrets because otherwise they can get lonely. I have two and they adore eachother.
Name I didn’t know that at the time and got 1 but I have other pets who he gets a log with. I have set up ferret play dates with some friends but he doesn’t get a long with other ferrets
The happy dance 😂
Great to see people (saints) getting involved to address the balance.
I love these two critters
My favourite prairie animals
Prairie Dogs: "Thanks a lot."
46:23 that ferret was like ok enough looking around get back down here.
They are super cute.
They keep the prairie dog population down...very important.
How are the mountain lion doing in Florida
There are still mountain lions in Florida. but they are endangered because there isnt enough habitat land for them.
Voldemort they can die good for humanity
@@whymustyoudisagree9158 big brian facs
Voldemort thanks 😎
You are A Great Man.
I remember in the very early 1970's Don Fortenberry (SDGF&P) did an extensive study on these in south western South Dakota National Grasslands (badlands). They were almost thought to be extinct at that time.
Watching docs to take my mind off the coronavirus panic and what happens?! The prairie dogs all get the plague! What the hell.
Finally found the identity of the animal that ran across our field, here in the NY mountains. No doubt about it = did the research ! There are lots of woodchucks here, and that's our 'prairie dog' ! This critter had been well fed and was in excellent shape. The title of the description was 'black footed ferrets', as you called it. Possible they like the taste of squirrels too !
I'd doubt that it was a Black Footed Ferret. The researchers/Biologists clearly stated that prairie dog is their sole diet, which is why they nearly went extinct. They don't even hunt rabbits like, the European Ferret does. Also it's nocturnal so when it hunts at night the Woodchucks & Squirrels would be asleep high up in the trees out of reach to a ferret whose natural habitat is flat grasslands not forested mountains.
Man has been the extinction of many species. I would imagine that there are wonderful creations that we have never, nor will ever see bc of our greed. So sad.
Good. Job!!😄
SAVE THE ANIMALS WHO GIVE IS FOOD
SAVE THE WORLD THAT GIVES US LIFE
SAVE US ALL FROM US OURSELVES
SAVE ALL OF THE PLANTS THAT WE HAVE KILLED
SAVE US FROM THE TOXIC WE BREATHE AND MAKE
Please save us all from us ourselves I beg you all please we are messing up the world and making climate change please help us save mankind and animal kind
My family has a hard time believing that my cute little ferrets are ferocious preditors in the wild. But ferrets know it lol. They have NO fear! They will chase my cats and my dogs like it's nothing. Granted they just curious and trying to play, but if they were hungry and needed to take a down a meal, they would have no trouble doing it! They have a toy pig that they love to "hunt." They will grab it and shake it viciously like a dog. When I try to take the pig from them, that's when I can feel the strength in their bite.
How sad for the prairie dogs
That's cutest banbit i ever saw.
Prairie Dogs do not approve this message !!
I know weight like wtf
I'm sending one prairie dog grass fart, in solidarity.
Prairie dogs are also dug up by badgers (taxidea taxus), so the prairie dogs don't always sleep in bliss!
@B1-OOM-224 Battle Droid Lovely, isn't it? It's Fredo, my horse, from the rear end.
@B1-OOM-224 Battle Droid Yeap... it is... booty-ful, but wait until it takes a dump. Then it is a masterpiece.
My heart is shattered into peices
Born to be free! Hallelujah! 😄👍🏻👏🏻
Travis Livieri. Say the man's name 🙌🏼
funny, but the Prairie Dog was there before any man stepped foot on North American soul.
11:30 I guess you could say he can really ferret out those ferrets.
I love those guys ferrets
i pressed on this by accident but i’m glad i did
This is absolutely nuts. This man deserves to go to prison for killing this many prairie dogs.
They had a research program at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in the late 80s and earlu 90s. I wonder if it is still active I was a docent there, but we were not allowed to visit the project.
Absolute,,,,,,,, Surabaya Indonesia
It's a ferrets dance of pleasure and contentment Ms
This should be titled “how one man destroyed the entire Canadian prairie”
You know what the world's most endangered insect is an ant when I was 6
I know you're just making a joke but Humans Couldn't Make Ants go extinct, even if every country worked together declaring War on Ants, they'd still survive coz we'd never get them all.
What was your weapon of choice? Magnifying glass, deodorant spray and lighter, flash flood from garden hose, pouring boiling hot liquid aluminum down the nest, or maybe just the good ole fashioned squish squash?
@@tearkshunta5407 this was 3 years ago 😭 I don't even remember talking about this but yea I agree
Blackfoot or stoat which one do you think is the most beautiful and cutest they're both so damn gorgeous I just want to live with them have 50 of them crawling all over me at the same time and I also believe they are crazy intelligent animals they remind me of a Mad Hatter when they do their crazy ground acrobatics
Black footed ferret!
Swapping
the children between each colony
after first succeed production
Not only for DNA diversity also for skills
Why didn't they radio tag them so they knew where they were?
I use to have ferrets
18 ferrets? Is that enough genetic diversity to survive?
They are rare
there are some good rewilding projects worldwide - UK knep purbeck europe germany has some good projects - would be interesting to have a world map of projects on a website -
Prairie dog endangered???but they were killed by the hunters 🥴🥴🥴
Does anyone know how things are going as of late?
💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Everyone listen up! Dont use lots of plastic
Not a scientist but if somehow introduce a supplemental food source maybe ferret survival chances would increase.
“Let’s decimate endangered prairie dog colonies”
How is this even allowed this is so fucked.
Cute
Breed little Ferrets….Eat & Breed !
prairie dogs have listed the name travis leviere down as the bane of their species.
Great cgi!
Why didnt they make the ferrets wear tracking collar devices so they could find them & monitor their progress? 😳
Time to bring Sabel tooth tiger back. Toronto can take 2000 and still keep a human population in balance.
Why are there zero trees or grass? What happened here? Honest question, please help me to understand. Thank you all very much.
Right now there are approximately 350-400 black-footed ferrets left in the wild :(
They guy from the center in Colorado said 1000 in the wild and 3-400 at the center...!!!!!!!
@Angela Lewis breeding stock so they can keep adding to the wild population
I donated to WWF to save the black footed ferret. YOU get a plush stuffed animal as well, if you donate.
The most endangered animals have like 1-2 left. Black-footed ferret was never the most endangered. It used to be called "the most endangered mammal in North America" but that's not true anymore. The vaquita dolphin is more rare for example, it's going to go extinct any day now, might already be extinct. There's only a few left.
Dinosaurs never existed
Tina
And endangered specie
🥰
I can’t believe they just killed off all those prairie dogs.
They were such psychos back then.
We can all coexist.
As long as they don’t come in my house I won’t go in there’s and then I won’t have to hurt them.
Mind your business and I’ll do the same.
😁🤙✌️🙏
Cattle and horses where getting Injured due to the burrows, if they broke a leg, that was it.
And they were eating our crops, bet you love eating but hate farmers
ive seen 14 of them in the valley I've had in my family forever they are not like ferrets you keep as pets it bit me like I owed it child support all I was trying to do is get it out of my garage I didn't know they were endangered the 1 I bought had 9 babys
Look at their teeth!
And now they'll both be doomed because the bandits will eat them all and then have nothing left
I have a few questions if anyone is knowledgeable. Once they go their own way, do Black Footed Ferrets know or remember their siblings & parents if they ever meet again? And are they inclined to inbreed? And lastly, are they prone to the kinds of issues your common pet ferret are ie, adrenal disease, insulinoma, deaf or blindness?
This isn't 100% but in terms of adrenal disease and insulinoma these are more prevalent in domestic ferrets due to what we do to them. Adrenal disease is thought to be connected with early neutering of domestic ferrets (with diet and genetics a contributing factor) while Insulinoma is linked to diet, specifically a diet which contains plant protein (it's recommend that a dry ferret food should have the first 5 ingredients as animal based for it to be considered a "good" food). As the BFF is intact and eats a natural diet they shouldn't be exposed to the same kind of risk that a domestic ferret can be exposed to.
Great show.
I can never side with environmentalist, they all suffer of serious psychosis.
No one:
Me at 3am
Piare dogs!
