Chinese Ferret-Badger.. That's right! I have seen them in a Zoo..
this species in chinese call"鼬獾"so we just translate it to "Ferret Badger" in fact. it should to classify to Mustelidae , Melinae web site http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E9%BC%AC%E7%8D%BE%E5%B1%9E
I took your picture and corrected some of the color and kept it in my file, so it is only right I heart it. I wish we had a little information on it. Is it a Ferret or a Badger or is it a Ferret that hunts badgers?
