Canuckle #1470: TORSO 🦦 Canada is home to a remarkable group of mammals known as mustelids, including wolverines, badgers, otters, minks, martens, weasels, ermines, and fishers. These animals are instantly recognizable for their signature build: long, slender, tube-like torsos paired with remarkably short legs. This distinctive shape gives them exceptional flexibility, allowing them to twist, turn, and slip through narrow crevices and burrows in pursuit of prey in forests, wetlands, rivers, and tundra throughout the country.
