Here are some more photos
We saw this Ermine dragging a dead rabbit off too, very cool, and you can see why you want four wheel drive in the mountains

Utah is known for their snow that's for sure. Sorry to hear you lost one of your pals. I know how that is, it's like a family member that loves you regardless of your faults. Spring is just around the corner and the Moab rush in March & April. We may come through in April depending on our project. I'll let you know.

thanks guys
I really miss Randall, but he was in the decline before I relocated here, so he wasn't able to get out as much.

Pap
Not sure who killed the rabbit, it might have been road kill, but I looked and it wasn't frozen yet. It must have weighed at least twice what the ermine weighed.
I had never seen an ermine before, and it was very neat to watch it trying to drag it over the snow.

Peter

All critters of the weasel family can handle much larger prey, but that was quite a load. Also, usually a hawk or owl will steal their kill before they get it to safe place. More likely the ermines kill tree squirrels, mice and such. A rabbit is quite an accomplishment.

Peter,
Looks like you'll be on the lookout for another puppy. Sorry to hear about Randall and thanks for the pics. Everyone will be able to see some of your photos in the newsletter as it is completed (with the exception of a final edit and trip to the printer).
Happy New Year, Capt. Chris

Those ferrets are bad ass, proof that its not the size of the animal but the spirit inside!

Nice truck too! (jeeps are trucks in my mind!)
