Did you know…The taxonomy of weasels can be very confusing, as evolution has lead to a variety of species sharing a similar anatomy. Since “mustela” is Latin for “weasel”, the family Mustelidae is often simply referred to as the “weasel family”. However, given our better understanding of genetics today, this term can be misleading in the English language. For example, many distinctive mustelids (such as badgers, otters, martens and the wolverine) are related to weasels, or in some respects “weasel-like”, but are generally not considered true weasels. In most cases it is believed only members of the genus Mustela are weasels. All in all the word “weasel” has developed such a broad, sometimes arbitrary definition that it is not consistently applied or understood.
