The black footed ferret is considered endangered, meaning they face a very high risk of extinction in the near future, but they are not critically endangered, in which case they would face a very high risk of dying out in the immediate future.
Efforts are being made to reintroduce the ferret to prairies, mainly in Arizona, in hopes of repopulation.
The ferrets have been released in several U.S. states and in a spot in Canada. Currently around 2000 in the wild.
The black footed ferret is not extinct, but nearly was. A small population was found in Wyoming, and led to a captive breeding program, which has been very successful. Now, around 2000 ferrets again roam the wilds.
my ferret, kooperton, who is a blackfooted ferret plays tag and hide and go seek, he also plays aattack the human, and pulls off my socks. Ferrets play a lot and play everything
Ferrets are carnivores so in the wild they eat meat but they have been bred to eat specially made ferret food. added : domestic ferrets, the ones you keep as pets, cannot and do not survive in the wild. They are 100% dependant on humans for food and shelter. There has never been, in recorded history, a case of a domestic ferret becoming feral. When a domestic ferret is "released" into the wild, it soon dies by predation, or starvation. The "wild" ferret is properly called the North American Blackfooted Ferret, and is highly endangered and protected. They were once thought to have become extinct, but have been reintroduced through a captive breeding and release program. It is illegal to own or bother a blackfooted ferret. In the wild, the blackfooted ferret eats mainly prairie dogs, (and then lives in their burrows)or any other animal it can overpower. Domestic ferrets, the ones kept as pets, should be fed a high protien diet of high quality meat-based cat food. They should NOT be fed dog food, as it does not contain enough nutrient for ferrets. Raw uncooked meats, such as beef, and chicken are also appreciated by domestic pet ferrets.
