Mink Intelligence

Like their cousins, the otters, mink are very playful. They are very inquisitive, highly intelligent animals. A study was performed that compared the learning ability of mink to ferrets, skunks, and house cats. The animals were tested on their ability to remember different shapes. The order of ability of remembering these different shapes were from best to worst; mink, ferrets, skunks and cats. Mink were in fact found to be more intelligent than certain groups of primates. After considerable training, mink were also found to learn after only one trial. This is a phenomenon usually only observed in higher primates Source: wikipedia
