Less mainstream factsUnless born albino, the North American mink's (Neogale vison) natural fur colour is brown with only a distinctive white patch on the chin, sometimes also on the chest or throat. Despite this, the vast majority of minks in visual art are given solid white fur. Colours such as solid white, beiges, speckled black and white (jaguar), and greys (silverblue) were created through selective breeding for the fur trade. These mink are likely feral (a.k.a. escaped or released from fur farms) if found in the wild.
