The Latin name of weasel translates as "snow" because of her snow-white winter coat. The structure and habits of affection
are most pronounced features of the small predator that hunts for prey - small
rodents - only in their burrows. Lusk is unpretentious in the choice of
habitat, inhabits almost all geographic areas. Weasel lives in forests,
prairies and forest, in the desert, tundra, the mountains rise to alpine
meadows. Not even avoids human settlements: it can be found in the green areas
of the largest cities. Lusk is missing except in the polar deserts and
snow-mountain belt, where weasels absent.
