The part about this marten being raised in captivity being the only reason he can grab one like that is a key piece of info.
Most UA-camrs wouldn’t have copped to that tho. Respect to Coyote.
Literally took the words out of my mouth! These things hunt snakes for a living, imagine catching one of the quickest agile animal known to man!
Don't be fooled by the cuteness! I adopted a puppy last week, and I know this cuteness game is just a ploy to to catch you off guard when it eats your couch.
Omg xD
Brady Mcneill Actually, she just wrecked a pillow on the couch, but it was enough of a mess in a very short time while I was in another room for like a _moment_. (Pillow fluff _everywhere!_) It makes me seriously worried for the sofa's safety.
O MY GAWDDDD 😂😍😭😭
true
lol. ikr
This is ludicrously adorable. A million gold stars for that lil marten being so mellow while getting grabbed up and cuddled.
Because this probably was a domesticated one...
@@Nimvar 100% agree. No way a wild marten would allow itself to be caught by a human climbing a tree.
I am reading Captain Correlli 's madolin,beautiful and very moving book,in the book the Greek girl's pet is a pine marten called Psipsina.
They say that its a captive marten in the video...

Wild animals: *is cute*
Also wild animals: *will bite you*
Nature is so unfair
Same with cute humans. Psychos are charming and good lookers take advantage of their looks for what they want. That's the natures law.
Normal bugs: Is creepy
Normal non-venomous bugs: won’t hurt you

pine marten: :V

lmao, this is actually so accurate

While I was reading it, coyote just said it
I saved one from death last week (not a Pine one. Has a white "tie"). It's really young, about a month old. It can't even stand on it's own. It's the cutest thing I have ever held in my hands. :D
soo cute
awww! how lovely~ ♡ :D
That`s a beech marten.
Good job
+SkyleZ I like to use bleach as a palette cleanser between courses while dinning
I absolutely love mustelidae in general, which include weasels, badgers, otters, and pine martens.
me too :3
i also love other families that along with Mustelids are in the superfamily Musteloidea like Procyonidae (raccoons, coatis, cacomistles, ect) Ailuridae (red pandas) and Mephitidae (skunks)
@@majamystic256 Thank you for pointing out that skunk are not mustelids! It kinda bugged me that he said they were in the video.
Honey badger. 💪💪💪💪💪
@Leo Maunsell A bored HB , Stoffel ...wanted to fight lions in a nearby enclosure and dug under it , they are crazy brave.
My neighbor who was a vet had an otter she raised and the thing was a ball of energy... it would literally do circles around me and it played fetch like a dog. I remember it greeting me at the driveaway, then disappearing only to pop out of a hole in the deck as i approached the door. Lol they are almost too much to handle.
My favorite member of the weasel family is my lawyer

She is so cute! The best trait an assassin can have is to be a cutie to get the prey close.

My favorite member of the weasel family has to be either fred or george

SO CUTE DOOD
This comment is especially funny to me...I googled Pine Marten after getting that as a result when I took the Discover Your Patronus quiz :P
OMG Harry Potter Joke Alert!

Hmm.. I think it's probably Ron lol
I just got a ferret two months ago, with him came a long journey learning about mustelids. Then last night after work, I thought I saw a rat but as he ran away I noticed the weasel hop and the fluffy tail- I came home and my dad said he was probably a pine marten. Cutest little dude next to my ferret I’ve ever seen. I know this video is old but thank you! It showed me everything I was curious about in my wild encounter last night.
She's like a mix between a bear and a weasel :)
no shes just a weasel
It’s looks like a little fox to me
Bear and weasel? Nah that’s a wolverine for ya
@@Glitch-the-experimentyeah. More like part weasel part wolverine lol

Didn't you hear him say this particular Pine Martin was raised by humans? That is the only reason he was able to get close to it. I swear, people just don't listen.
You're probably right. People watch these clips while texting about the new sneakers they bought that have lights in them ; - (

AND THATS LIK ONE OF THE CUTEST THINGS I EVER SAW

I saw a marten in the forest once with my father and I thought it was a cat baby first until my dad say "no that's a marten". Never seen one since. I still remember it to this day.
I don't have one but I love that thing it's so cuddly and adorable

RogueCentaurXIV I found it kind of comical actually. These guys are really feisty when they are hunting and fighting squirrels. It looks like a tiny tornado rolled into a ball. They have to be deadly accurate because the squirrel's claws are no joke.

+Bogdan Dosic 😍yay
+Julia Calli That one wouldn't kill you (or even a fly). A wild one might. :)
Fox Heart No, even wild one wouldnt kill you, because they are scared of us, and they don't even have that much of a bite force to actualy kill you. They could penetrate ur skin maybe, thats all. :)
IT’S LIKE A NOODLE GRIZZLY BEAR CAT
Awesome, perfect and thanks for the chuckle.
That is so cute, it looks like a weasel and a fox had a baby
woman, the funniest thoughts
Interracial cutie
I saw one in Wyoming and I thought it was a baby fox. Although I'm colorblind so I didn't know it wasn't orange.
This is the reason I know I’m going to end up dying petting something I shouldn’t. 🙈

"a member of the weasel family that you've probably never heard of" *laughs in His Dark Materials*
lmao that's how i got here
Lol. This is why I'm here. But I'm afraid to watch the HBO adaptation cause probably I'll get disappointed
@@eric0556 Honestly it was pretty good. It's been some time since I've read the books, but I enjoyed it. There's definitely been some criticisms, such as not having daemons for the background characters, though that can be explained due to budget. And it's best to go in not expecting a perfect adaptation. It's it's own thing that's changed some stuff, but has kept most of it the same
Pantalaimon is best boi
*Laughs in Wild Krats*
If ferrets are apart of the weasel family, they are my favorite in the family. If not, pine martens are my fave
Me too
me too!!
Ferrets are so cute
Ferrets ARE part of the same family, but in my opinion have a much inferior coat (fur) than Martens. This may be the reason why Martens, Weasels (Ermine in Winter), Fischers and such ranked high on the trapping lists in times past.
SubtleKnowledge Oh. Thanks for the information :D
We've been the proud owners of Ferrets for over 10 years now. Currently we have 6, Fed an all raw diet of various meats/organs/bones. They are extremely smart, and some of the sweetest creatures I've ever had the privilege of sharing a home with. They'd sooner kiss you to death than bite, though they do play like puppies, Teeth and all. :p
So you're saying your house REAKS BIG TIME! YUCK! FERRETS are a complete opposite of the pine Martin or a Fisher cat. A Fishers have been well known to kill adult BOBCATS, ADULT white tail deer, and are the ONLY ANIMAL that intentionally hunts porcupine. They're the porcupines number 1 threat and killer. They bite the porcupines face until it's too weak, then they begin eating it alive, through the stomach. Very strong, brutal hunters in the weasel family. They're also the ONLY WEASEL FAMILY, and any other tree climbing animal that can not only climb trees, but, the ONLY ANIMAL that can descend from a tree HEAD FIRST. they're EXTREMELY FAST, FEROCIOUS, critters. Still the most sought after fur to date in the lower 48. Next to bobcat, and wolves, they'll bring a nice payday at the fur buyers place.
I do agree that ferrets have a smell. But if you bath them every two weeks and keep there cages clean it's no worse than a cat.
Owning ferrets just means all the things that aren't bolted down just end up inside the bottom of your couch.😏
My family has had two ferrets. An albino named Snoops, and a standard sable named Baxter, the latter being my pet ferret, and he was my best friend. He never bit me, only gave harmless playful love nips with his teeth, but never sank them onto my finger. He was a little stinky, but that's still natural, even for a de-scented ferret, and it never bothered me. He got a bath frequently, had his claws trimmed, and was given plenty of good care and lots of love.
@@johnredcorn5650 Actually, no. They have a subtle musky odor, but do not 'stink'. The more you bathe them, the worse they will smell, because their skin feels the need to produce MORE oils. Once a year is fine for a ferret. Linens need to be washed once to twice a week, litter pans scooped 2-3 times a day. Proper diet also plays a large part in odor. Most people that own ferrets don't take these things into consideration. Ferrets are part of the Mustelidae family, same as Polecats, Otters, Stoats, Wolverines, Etc. I'm sorry whoever you've known does not properly take care of their ferrets. The most we ever had at once was 10, and guests did not even know we had them upon entering our home, or even their room, until they see the ferret themselves/their sleeping cage. :)
@@johnredcorn5650 There are other tree devils that can decline heads down. Some from cibet family, Fossa from Madagascar and binturong that cross my mind this moment. But yeah, it is not a common feature.
Ohmygosh, that is SOOO ADORABLE.
"Crazy little slinkies" really gets it.
This is, so far, the cutest pokemon you've had on your show, aside from the baby squirrel of course.
Good job at showing us some of this pokemon's features!
Cheesus Saves haha shes a pokemon huh... thats funny :)
Coyote Peterson oh yeah. And a cute one too!
Looking forward to your upcoming videos.
Be safe out there!
The pine marten look like a little bear
MrLoomis42 pretty sure they aren't
Well, martens are the closest relatives of wolverines, so maybe it's not that surprising.
Please be careful Coyote
Your an awsome wildlife enthusiast and I would hate to see you get hurt
It would destroy me to see you get mortally wounded like Steve Irwin did (RIP Crocodile Hunter 😢) He died doing what he loved
i was thinking this as well
He gets hurt all the time for us.

Now I don't know about you guys, but my favorite member of the weasel family is the American Mink. I was up in the thousand islands area, and there was a mink living around the cottage we were staying in. I had a rubber boat, and when I was being really quiet and low paddling around the little cove, the mink was watching me from the shore. I was real close in the weeds, just laying down in this inflatable boat, watching this amazing little brown mustelid stare me down. She (I say she because this was a smaller individual) seemed more curious than anything, and later in the day I actually got her to eat a goby that I caught. She came within three feet of me. I will never ever forget that experience.
I was already wondering, how he could simply pick up a marten without being bit...
That's my name Marten
its tame
As he said, that specific one was raised in captivity. It's used to humans.
+CLOROX BOY IS HERE! "I was already", this obviously insinuates that once Coyote said it was raised in captivity, the OG commenter's wondering had been put to rest
yep
Hes holding her and just chilling, and talking while shes like
*left*
*Right*
*Wants to bite*
"I'm smol and viscous!"
*left*
*wiggle right*
It's so freaking adorable!! I've been ferret crazy, which certainly won't change now because the Pine Marten would maul me or something. But I've found a new animal obsession; thank you for that!
he should lead off by telling that this cute fur ball was raised in captivity ... not after... lol
should have been able to figure it out by watching her mannerisms.
One time my friends and I were playing outside. We heard a loud thump behind us, and I turned around and it was a crying baby raccoon. The mother had died, or abandoned them, we assumed. Over the next few days, the baby raccoons kept falling out of the tree. We fed them, there were three, and we put them in a box until we figured out what to do. They slept in the box outside by the tree for a day until we found a place for them. I was playing outside at school the day after we had put them in the box, and the tree where they were was in full view of the playground. I witnessed a lady steal the box of three baby raccoons. I never saw them again. That is the closest encounter I ever had with wild animals.
F*** YOU LADY
+LiterallyMe well if they died they would be in a better place, and maybe with their mom :) think of the bright side, maybe the raccoons werent in the box, who knows? maybe she let them free? like i said, who knows
That is one of the stupidest things I have ever read, Isaiah Glazdon...
What a jerk.
A lady was feeding and taking care of raccoons and the there neighbor poisoned and killed the raccoons 😭😭😭😭
Minks are my favorite member of the weasel family because I've kept them as pets and they're absolutely the most aggressive animal I've ever encountered. They're incredibly strong and unbelievably mean, they'll go after just about anything that moves and half the things that don't.
I like this guy. I wonder if there are full episodes like national geo or croc hunter when he had his show. These short clips just leave you wanting to see more.
***** Nope the episodes are short for the web...not on TV...we have a longer series called Dragon Tails but that is just snapping turtles. BT S2 comes out this fall!
Coyote Peterson Cool, I will catch them when it comes out. What channel will it be airing in?
Everything is on UA-cam...just make sure you are subscribed and you are good to go!
Cool! Sounds good. I subscribed by the 3rd video a few days back
Imagine you just chilling on a tree and suddenly a man took you and presenting your life that you dont even know.
Favorite member of the weasel family is the one who doesn't want eat my friend Squirrel
Imagine from a squirrel's view: what a huge and terrifying "tree tiger" a pine marten must seem to be, fast, camoflauged and deadly, trying to crush your neck with its wicked long fangs.
Ehh, squirrels are baby cannibalizing tree rats. I'm on team marten.
@@yerman0564 Yes the American grey squirrel is and they are driving our European red squirrel to extinction over here we need to increase our pine marten numbers to help cull they grey squirrels in the UK.
@@Treggs1 martens will also eat the red squirrels. That’s not a valid solution.
@@jordanpayne6838 Red Squirrels are actually more adapted to having the pine marten as a predator compared to the grey squirrel, so the grey squirrel is much easier prey for them and they are much more abundant the benefit of having much less competition for food outways the risks of having a Predator they are already adept at dealing with. There is an area in Ireland where pine martens are starting to thrive again and it's having a positive effect on the red squirrel population so much so that they are already making plans to boost pine marten numbers in the UK.
I love weasels & all members of the weasel-related family.🤗🤗🤗💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Absolutely amazing! What absolutely beautiful patterns, such sharp teeth, and the ability to climb like a boss, what an amazing animal.
My favorite member of the weasel family is the Fisher, usually referred to as the Fisher Cat. They're adorable but can become very viscous when defensive. Their home is in North America and Canada. They're very courageous little animals, and their strong will is what makes them my favorite.
Canada is in North America LOL
@@SohiHien Those filthy French speaking commies ain't Americans
@@jakeg3733 No we aren't but we are part of NORTH AMERICA which is the continent not a country. Mexico is part of North America too and a few other countries. Typical Americans not being taught anything about geography. Also many Canadians can't speak french lol and we are as far from communist as can be, we have a liberal prime minister currently lmao. Nice try. Learn about the world and try again
It's a joke, lighten up. I was being sarcastic. Nobody thinks that way. Well, correction... There is someone at work who thinks that way and we make fun of them _constantly_ for it because it's just so far outside of any kind of rational thinking it's amusing in a sad sort of way. I was channeling that individual with my comment. I am well aware of the geography, history, and demography of North America. It IS nice to see someone who isn't afraid to call out mis/disinformation
My favorite member of the weasel family is Duke Weaselton

I do like this serious. But I think everything he comes across, excluding bugs, are just raised by humans. If that was truly wild it would be hissing and clawing the ever living fuck out of his hand. And then to find it in a dead tree for good shots...? He should really say this in the beginning of videos. What's the point of a 'professional handler' for a tamed animal like that?
+Nikki Schul all animals that were raised in captivity are clearly acknowledged in the videos which feature them...as was this one. That said the vast majority of the wildlife we work with are wild animals...
Ah, well. I've only seen like 4 or so episodes so far. Little early to judge on my part nevertheless I still like this.
+Nikki Schul If they were "hissing and clawing the ever living fuck out of his hand" He wouldn't be able to show them to us.
+Nikki Schul sadly I can only like 1 time...
+Nikki Schul So much for paying attention, eh Nikki?
its like the most adorable thing ever imagined with a wicked set of teeth.

I would if I had gloves and a long sleeve t-shirt
+Hanh Le. what am i right about?
I actually saw one of these guys on a hike once. Specifically, a hike on Mt. Rainier with my mom. On the ground, waddling about and contentedly grazing were many marmots. We had just had an encounter with a Gray Jay who decided it wanted our trail mix....and then worked out how to remove the rock holding the bag shut while we rested. I look over to one side and there, sprawled across the branch of a pine tree lower down slope from the trail so the branch was at head height, was a drowsy pine marten maybe ten feet away from where we were walking. It was looking right back at me, yawned, and blinked a few times. It was pretty cool.
Wow,they are very hard to find
Do people really make clothes of these things? I would be ashamed for the rest of my life for killing such a cute little.... Cat..?
Weasel.
well, people drink the milk that was supposed to be drinked by the calves.
Did you know the newborn calves are separated from his mother in the very first hours of life just so the milk producers can profit the most?
That's not all, the baby calves will die within 2 years of life in most countries so some can have the luxury of consuming baby beef.
Humans do all kind of cruelty without even thinking about it. If there's someone willing to buy it....someone is willing to sell it.
It's not a cat
Cat? Blech!!! cat's are disgusting and suck ballz. This thing is cute and sweet. and its only semi-domesticated.
Vault Boy I don't like cats very much I rather prefer dogs

I actually have seen one of these in person in their environment. He came into our campsite in the BWCA while chasing a rabbit around. He just followed the rabbit around and did not care about any of us in the camp. The rabbit would sprint from one bush to another, with the marten following right behind. He caught him and dragged it right through the center of our camp for us all to see. It was awesome.
She's beautiful!!
Perhaps if you try this with a wild one you get bit badd!
Marit exactly why I did NOT do that....haha they will maul the heck out of you....but honestly you would never be able to get that close to them in the wild.
Coyote Peterson Yeah, they would run away. or probably attack, but oh my gosh they're so beautiful !
I love all mustelids, but I fell in love with them due to my two ferrets, Big Guy and Sammy. Also, my high school team was the Wolverines, lol!

My favorite animal of the weasel family is a pine marten
So cute! My favorite member of the weasel family is the ferret. I had 4 at one time. They gave me so much joy. I spoiled them rotten. Only downside was their short lifespan of about 8 years. In memory of Jasper, Oliver, Snoogle, and Harold. : )
may they rest in peace!
The pine marten has surprisingly long legs for a mustelid! I am obsessed with pine martens. And just weasels in general. The pine marten is (in my opinion as well as straight up facts) one of the most beautiful things in the animal kingdom! I can't get enough of the wee beauties.
A wild pine marten would absolutely destroy his hand and rip his face off. I was nervous when I saw him climbing up.
pine marten is our national currency lol
you barter pine martens for groceries? where are they raised? are they captive bred? are they cruelty free? where do they all go? are they trained? where do you keep all of them? are there pine marten daycares that are functional banks?
well historically pine marten fur was a mean of exchange ,but now the coins and bank notes carry the name "kuna" pine marten.
Who else is thinking of Pantalaimon and Lyra from His Dark Materials?
What?
vSlyx His Dark Materials is a book series and a show. Pantalaimon and Lyra are characters within the show/books. Pantalaimon happens to transform into a pine marten.
LifeOfFiction um ok.
@@aneurysm.865 watch his dark materials
Rai Rai The Jedi Master no.
Here at 10,000 plus feet where I live, when I go up into the mountains I see them on the ground all the time. They go into the rocky terrain to hunt marmots ( oversized ground hogs)! They get absolutely massive up here (colorado) relatively speaking!
Was the Pine Marten named after a dude who was the first guy named Marten to see a pine marten in a pine tree? 😂😂😂
I wonder that too!
Abigail Jeong lol
Abigail Jeong LOLLLLLLL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Abigail Jeong hhahahahaah
Etymology of the word marten:
From Middle English martren, martryn, from Anglo-Norman martrine (“marten fur”), from Old Dutch *marthrin (“of marten fur”) (compare Middle Dutch martren), from *marthra (“marten”) (compare Dutch marter), from Proto-Germanic *marþuz (compare Low German Mort, West Frisian murd (“polecat”), Old English mearþ (“shrew”)), originally 'wedding' (compare Crimean Gothic marzus (“wedding”)), from Proto-Indo-European *martus (“bride”). More at marry. For sense development, compare Italian donnola (“weasel”), from donna (“lady”), Greek nyfítsa 'weasel', from nymfē 'bride'.
Copied from the Wiktionary.
Etymology of the word pine:
From Latin pīnus, from Proto-Indo-European *poi- (“sap, juice”). Cognate with Sanskrit पितु (pitu, “sap, juice, resin”).

Is that pine marten
Is that Pine Marten is a baby.
In the small town I grew up in there used to be a rather infamous little marten that prowled the streets and alleyways at night, chewing up cables and fighting stray cats seemingly just for fun. Absolutely beautiful animals, as vicious as they can be at times.
I want one.
it seriously looks like a.....
catdog.
is it a cat or a dog?foxes....?.no one knows
yeagh the pine marten really does look like a cat dog
i thought it looked luke a weasel and a very small tiger
+NathanBuildzMC yes because it was dicsovor and indentfied it is in the weevil family
+Nickolas Faz It's not surprising, considering both Caniformia and Feliformia evolved from a common ancestor. Some members of Carnivora retain traits closer to that extinct ancestor. A prime example is the Genet, thought by some biologists to be the closest living resemblance(morphologically speaking)to said ancestor.
Joke’s on coyote I watched wild kratts when I was younger
Oh, do I have to choose? Short Tailed Weasel, Pine Martin, Wolverine... they’re all pretty amazing!
The sable!
It is cuter than the wolverine face
I totally and completely agree with you on that one
Same…😐
It's so cute! It kinda looks like a little fox, with its snout and ears.
They really do...except their energy in unmatched, I've never seen a more energetic animal:)

+Nicolas trudel ha!funny but not nice!
+Nicolas trudel That was a good joke :O
mine is pine marten, its adorable
Had one of these adorable creatures follow us as we skied up the old mining road into Mayflower Gulch (Colorado). My buddy was like “whoa, is that a pine marten? I’ve always wanted to see one.” “Yeah, I think so, but they’re pretty reclusive, so I’m sure he’ll be gone in a sec.”
Nope, the little dude was so curious he followed us for at least a half mile. Every time we thought we lost him, he’d pop his head up from behind a snow bank. I’ve been blessed to have hundreds of wildlife encounters in my outdoor adventures. This was by far the cutest wild animal I’ve ever seen.
