Talk:Weasel war dance

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The meaning of "ferret" in this article is somewhat ambiguous. Is this behavior present in wild mustelids, or only the domestic ferret species? Fledchen 19:59, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Video

Any chance of one? Sounds like a thing to see! :D

Yahoo!'s video search identified one. Scroll down to "Duncan freaks out!" It doesn't quite look like a weasel war dance to me, but the bed may be messing it up. BioTube 01:51, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Any scientific analysis?

Has the purpose of the dance been interpreted in any rigorous biological way by anyone. I would speculate from the top of my head that it is a result from sometimes the ferrets in the wild having to chase their prey several times before they finally catch it. But I would love to see if some genuine scientist has explored the issue. -- Cimon Avaro; on a pogostick. 11:17, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
