The length of a mink's gastrointestinal tract typically ranges from about 5 to 7 meters (16 to 23 feet), depending on the individual and its diet. Minks are carnivorous animals, and their digestive system is adapted to efficiently process meat. The relatively short length compared to herbivores reflects their high-protein diet, which allows for quicker digestion and nutrient absorption.
