Weasel is a fictional character from the animated children's television series The Animals of Farthing Wood based upon the books of the same name by author Colin Dann. He is, as his name suggests, a Weasel.
[edit] In the TV Series
While male in the books, Weasel was female in the cartoon. An irreverent prankster with a distinctive cackling laugh, Weasel spent much of the journey to White Deer Park getting on the nerves of the other animals, at one point getting drunk and slurring happily to Badger how he was her "besht friend". In the Park, Weasel crossed the villainous Scarface early on and was threatened with violence to help him.
She constantly clashes with Adder. In the second season, she meets the love-sick Measly, who falls in love with her, and she winds up becoming his reluctant mate. She often shows affection to him, such as a kiss on the cheek, but can be quite unloving to him.
At the beginning of the third season, she is apparently furious with Measly for something. "What do I need a mate for? Look what you've done to me!" She tells him. It comes as a surprise to Fox, Vixen, Plucky, Dash and, Mossy that she has a "condition", and is "with weasel". It just so happens that she was expecting babies!
After getting chased by Trey, the new tyrant leader of the park, she is frustrated and leaves the park with Measly to have her little one in safety. In a barn miles away from White Deer Park, Weasel has given birth to two little weasels, Cleo and Fido. She makes Measly do all the work in raising them. She yells at Measly for loosing them, and compares her "skinny, starving" weasels to the goslings the twins were following, and makes Measly teach them to be weasels, instead of goslings. Because of the twins, the farm animals make the family leave the barn.
