We just learned about the European Mink.
Another type of animal in the same family is the Yellow-Bellied Weasel.
This animal is about 10 inches long, and weighs about 3 pounds.
They get their name from their bright yellow bellies.
Usually they live up in the mountains in Asia, in small little caves called dens.
