Mink are probably best known for their thick fur, which is usually dark brown to black in color and is a very popular item used to make fur coats. Because of this, they are harvested by trappers in late fall and winter when the fur is most prime, and sold mainly to European and Asian markets.
Due to variations in size, an individual mink usually cannot be determined as European or American with certainty without looking at the skeleton. There is one exception to this rule: all European minks have a large white patch on their upper lip, while only some American minks do. Thus, any mink with no such patch is certainly of the American variety.
