The Awsome Ferret-Cam!
The picture below is updated every 15 seconds via a live video
camera. If you're lucky you might catch a glimpse of the mysterious
and elusive Mustela furo (the domesticated Ferret),
rarely seen in their natural habitat, the suburban apartment. (If you
see a partial image or no image at all, please re-load as you probably
caught the server while it was updating the image.) If you notice the
Ferret-Cam being down for a long time, or just want give comments,
please send me email.

The results are in! Here's a little Ross Perot style graph I
made showing the results of of all the information supplied by
all of you steadfast ferret watchers. The times on it are Central
Standard time, so if you are not in the central U.S. you will have
to adjust the times yourself. It seems that overwhelmingly the best
time to catch a ferret is between 2 and 7 p.m. I think this may
have more to do with when people are watching than when the ferrets
are out, but keep sending in the data, and maybe we can get a more
accurate perspective.
Because of much ignorance and many false pre-conceived notions
ferrets are still illegal in some locations. For info on what's
happening to help the situation and what you can do check out
Ferret Central. Those
of you living in California may also want to check out the
California domestic ferret association.
