Black-Footed Ferrets: The Rediscovery

This video chronicles the rediscovery of black-footed ferrets in Wyoming 30 years ago. At that time, black-footed ferrets were thought to be extinct. The rediscovery set in motion one of the most successful conservation efforts in history.

Their reintroduction is something to be happy about! This makes my heart smile.

My mom grew up in Rock River and told me about this. My grandpa was part of DOW fish and game in Rock River working and running the fish Hatch, and was very involved in this.
, Good Video. Thanks.

I did a presentation in graduate school in 1984 on black footed ferrets. I have original letters from Dave Belitsky and other wildlife managers of that time. My students even made up a game in the Kingdom of Cummings about BFF's. Check it out!

What I heard at the time was that
the bf ferrets were nearly all killed off by Tom Thorne’s dog’s distemper..
The remaining breeding pair , Becky and Scarface were sent to an other breeding facility in Colorado...
