	Weasel war dance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The weasel war dance is a colloquial term for a behavior of excited ferrets.
		The war dance usually follows play or the successful capture of a toy or a stolen object.
		Although the weasel war dance may make a ferret appear frightened or angry, they are often just excited and are usually harmless to humans.

	Weasel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Weasels are mammals in the genus Mustela of the Mustelidae family.
		Weasels feed on small mammals, and in former times were considered vermin since some species took poultry from farms, or rabbits from commercial warrens.
		For example, Alan Lloyd's novel Kine, about a fictional war in the English countryside between weasels and the invasive species mink, depicts the latter as sadistic, voracious invaders, giants in comparison to the weasels; in American usage, both species would be kinds of weasel.

		The Sun Dance lodge (McClintock, 1910:314 for illustration, is also erected with ceremony, renowned warriors counting coup on the center pole; others cut special thongs to bind the poles, a rite which is purchased from those who held it the previous year.

		I once had the chance to watch a baby weasel doing something called the 'weasel war dance' and this is thought to be a distraction display for fooling prey.
		The intended victims were a bunch of feeding chaffinches that totally ignored the weasel because it was barely larger than a full-grown vole.
		It was once thought that this behaviour was caused by a parasite but captive ferrets will dance when they are playing and it seems that this is a natural piece of behaviour in the stoat family.

	Black Footed Ferrets
		Although the Ferret was never a greatly abundant weasel, their numbers have been growing ever fewer and it was at this point in time when members of various organizations composed of numerous fish and game departments, amongst others, decided to step in, and help save these rare and adorable weasels.
		In the act of this war dance the Ferrets will ARCH up their backs, raise their heads skyward and humorously bounce about wildly hissing at what seems to be sparking their attention.
		I have seen this act at home many times, the robust weasels will jump completely off the platform from which they originated, which in most cases around my place, seems to be a bed or a Ferret hammock.
