Weasels

Mammals belonging to the genus Mustela and family Mustelidae are known as weasels. There are the fewest weasels, polecats, stoats, ferrets, and European mink in the genus Mustela. Small, energetic predators with long, thin bodies and short legs make up this genus. Weasels prey on tiny animals and have occasionally been regarded as pests because certain species stole chickens from farms or rabbits from commercial warrens. Weasels eat small mammals. On the other hand, they do consume a lot of rodents. Their distribution includes minor parts of North Africa as well as Europe, North America, much of Asia, and South America.

Can you guess what weasels are most hazardous for? They hunt together. Weasels are indeed considered to be one of the main predators of seagulls. They are relatively little creatures, but they are strong since they like to hunt in packs.

If weasels were to chase seagulls by themselves, they would have little chance of success. However, because they roam in packs, they have the ability to kill not just one seagull but a whole flock of birds. Weasels also eat the eggs and young of seagulls. They constantly scan the horizon for opportunities, and when they do, they use the moment to assault their eggs and nestlings.

Due to their quick metabolism, weasels need to eat regularly. Weasels will eat nearly anything that comes their way to satisfy their voracious hunger. Rats, rabbits, birds, and frogs, including their eggs and young, are their main sources of food.
