    We don't have weasels where I live , we had mongoose!
    I looked for the word *weasel* in an English to Bengali dictionary and they incorrectly had written *"béji"* , the Bengali word for mongoose in the translated section. And for a long time I believed weasel and mongoose are the same things, that is until I got the chance to read about weasels in details! 😂😂😂
