american pine marten

Information about the Pine Marten:

The Pine Marten is a smaller member of the family Mustelidae. This mammal has a very wide distribution over much of North America, mostly in Canada abut it is also found in some areas of the Pacific Northwest, Rocky Mountains and Northeastern US. This weasel grows to weigh about 4-15 pounds and 29-47 inches in length. They are opportunistic feeders. They will usually feed on small, ground dwelling mammals such as voles and mice. They will, occasionally, attack and kill animals as large or even larger then themselves, like rabbits. The Pine Marten also eats fruits, berries and insects. In some areas, they have been extirpated from their native range, but reintroduction projects have helped them re-establish themselves.
