When you get asked if you did anything interesting over the weekend…like you’re out there skydiving.
No, John, I’m a mink. I ate some food, walked around the den, and took a nap. In all seriousness, an average weekend for a mink living in Alaska would typically involve, well, eating food, walking around, and maybe a nap. Going a bit deeper, a mink would be on the hunt for its meal, such as fish, birds, and small mammals. Minks are also semi-aquatic animals and are excellent swimmers, so they often spend time in or near bodies of water searching for food. They are also known to be active at dawn and dusk. Most like checking work emails. Overall, a mink lives a pretty active lifestyle focused on survival and finding food. Same.
