American Minks have short legs with partially webbed feet, which make them excellent swimmers. They can be found in wooded areas and fields near streams and lakes. They do not dig burrows, but instead take over dens abandoned by other animals. Mink are semi aquatic predators able to hunt both aquatic and terrestrial prey. They can dive under water like an otter to capture fish, crayfish, and frogs. They can also capture terrestrial prey like birds, snakes, mice, voles, and rabbits. Mink are generalist predators focusing on whatever prey is most available and easily captured. These animals are mainly active at night and do not hibernate.
The mink is found in places which suit its habits throughout almost all North America, from Florida to the Arctic

American mink was created in 1777.
The European mink is endangered primarily due to habitat loss, pollution, and competition with the invasive American mink. Deforestation and wetland drainage have significantly reduced its natural habitats, while pollution has impacted its food sources. Additionally, the introduction of the American mink has led to predation and competition, further threatening the European mink's survival. Conservation efforts are essential to protect their remaining habitats and mitigate these threats.
