Black-footed ferrets in the wild are susceptible to becoming prey themselves. Common predators of ferrets include coyotes (Canis latrans), badgers (Taxidea taxus) and great-horned owls (Bubo virginianus). Other predators can include bobcats (Lynx rufus) and hawks and eagles.
Ferrets can be fed meat with bones in, but only if raw. They must never be given cooked bones as these can cause serious internal blockages which often prove fatal. Ferrets can enjoy raw and cooked egg but only the yolk. Feeding your ferret too much egg white can cause a biotin deficiency which will lead to hair loss.
