The black footed ferret protects itself by spending most of the time underground in its home or prairie dog burrows and usually only comes out at night.
The black-footed ferret is very secretive and is nocturnal, so that few people have ever seen them in the wild. Most of its time is below ground in prairie dog burrows, and usually spends only a few minutes above ground each day for hunting or finding new burrows or mates. In burrows it sleeps, stores its food, avoids predators and harsh weather, and takes care of it's young. Their worst enemy is man, and they are losing that battle. As we plow more lands and kill prairie dogs, the ferrets begin to die because we cut off their main food source. The black footed ferret is making a comeback now because of captive breeding programs, several colonies are roaming the plains again.

By biting. They have very long canine teeth and surprisingly strong jaw force. They remind me of little Pit Bulls in that if they clamp down on you it is very difficult to remove them unless they open their mouths themselves, which usually requires you to dump water on them or have someone else pry their jaws open with a pencil or other similar abject from the side of their mouths.
They are also incredibly fast, sneaky and smart. They can flatten themselves out to fit underneath, through or in almost anything. Wherever their head can go their body can follow, no matter their size.
A domestic ferret does not know how to protect itself in the wild. Wild ferrets protects itself by being nocturnal, meaning they come out of their burrows at dusk and dawn for a few minutes at a time to avoid predators.
