Minnesotan revives Marten with mouth to mouth

[Klaus]

These are my people. Martens are nasty little ****ers if you are not aware. They are like micro wolverines and will **** you up if given the chance.

Minnesota fur trapper snares marten, revives 'vicious' critter with mouth-to-snoot resuscitation

A state conservation officer said he was amazed at the trapper's willingness to go to such lengths, given that martens "are vicious and mean as heck."

Martens are essentially the wild version of a Ferret also. I posted a video a while ago of one chasing a rabbit in a field of other rabbits and once they choose their target they don't stop until they get it. There will even be closer rabbits to it that are easy targets but they don't care, they keep at the one they initially targeted.

Look at those little legs keeping up! I assume the Martens know they have more endurance so they just keep going.

The video I was originally thinking of was a Stoat vs rabbit, but they are the same family of animals. Stoats and some Martens are really small and very similar to Ferrets

So they are basically the tropical Canadian version of the Honey Badger?

They're all Honey Badgers and Wolverines, but just in different sizes. The Mustelid family is pretty much all the same as far as attitude. Otters fall into the family as well and River Otters are known to be some of the most vicious killers that have been seen in gangs taking down chimps.

The way the guy was following the one Marten in his truck would scare a lot of other predators off of their chase but Mustelids don't care. It definitely knew the truck was there behind him, but their thought process is to keep going and deal with the threats as they present. He was gonna get his prey and if the truck was a threat to him then he'd fight it after he gets the kill. If that was a big cat or a bear being filmed in a chase it would more than likely fall off its chase in order to evade the threat behind it.

A small honey badger. Fishers and wolverines are giant honey badgers. We have fishers and martens where I am at. Fishers eat martens and porcupines. Super bad ass.

Don't trappers catch marten and sell the pelts?

It said they were out of season at the time. But yes they bring good money to the people up in Canada and Alaska.

See what transpires when one doesn't read the article? I watch a lot of 'life in Alaska' shows and one said the marten pelt can fetch over $100.
