Did you know that a group of black footed ferrets is called a business? That’s just one interesting fact about these endangered animals. In 1987, only 18 were known to exist. With recovery efforts led by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, there could be a thousand living in the wild now. Thanks to the Black Footed Ferret Conservation Center in Colorado for their dedication to saving these unique and really cute animals. Learn more: http://on.doi.gov/1iWSu6e.
