The American mink is native to North America (I don't know about South America), but I think there is also a European mink. There are lots of members of the same family (mustelid, I think) native to North America: short-tailed weasels - a.k.a ermine, long-tailed weasels, fishers, pine martens, badgers, otters, wolverines, black-footed ferret etc...I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot. They're rare enough that I always get excited to see any members of that family, though it is hard to warm up to a voracious carnivore that you know is preying on the other cute critters we like to watch.

Thanks for that, Patti. I did not know that re the mink being a North American native. I guess this is the whole question of introduced species, isn't it? Ireland's mustelids include badgers too - they get a bad rap as the possible cause of bovine TB. Our rarest is probably the pine marten... and yes, the excitement of seeing my one-and-only one a while back was sensational! Badgers sometimes go wandering down the lane beside us... and stoats have also been seen to frolic there too. They love the stone walls... (and the bunnies, for different reasons...). Not worried re the fact that one creature is the prey and another the predator. But the poor old "Irish" mink, I fear, is the wrong critter in the wrong place.

I did hear that one Dale. And I think that the joke is certainly within the boundaries of this topic. (Unlike another certain mink post from another certain person which ONLY speaks to the mink.)

Don't worry Bobbie. According to the rules of topic etiquette, section 18.4, subsection C, it's only the FIRST person who creates the tangent that is at fault. Sort of like the first person in a convoy making a wrong turn; everybody behind him (or HER in this case) just naturally follows.

And when I contributed, I at least modified the topic somewhat so that anyone following it might not be misled into thinking that we were still talking about a fish.

SOME of us are in fact still talking about a fish. Nonstop.
So this fish goes into a bar, plops himself down on a barstool.
Bartender says, "what can I get you?" No...wait...
Bartender says, "Hey! No fish allowed in this bar!" No...

2. biting, cutting, mordant, bitter, derisive, ironic, sardonic.
and why is the Fringehead considered to be sarcastic? What does a fish have to do to be called sarcastic? I guess they do bite. But what caused them to be bitter? Did they lose a loved one and now they're just plain bitter? I don't think they cut their food, since they don't have any hands to hold a knive. Although they do have big mouths. Maybe the other fish make fun of them and that's why they are bitter and sarcastic. Hmmmm. Things to think about.
