    Mink are an alien species, so there is no licence needed

    That would explain why they're dying on the roads then, You'd think aliens if they've made it all the way to planet earth from whereever they're from would have some basic car control skills though.

    ALiens blend in with the locals and dont arouse so much suspicion.

    Awh what a lovely future they have: (from wiki: Many released minks, however, tend to die of exposure or from fighting one another)

    Sigh not the first time this has happened. Way to go activists release a killer animal which will fcuk with the rest of the local animal population for years to come and some will no recover (salmon) :mad:

    Those animal farms are barbaric and should not be tolerated, but whoever released them are short sighted muppets. These mink will do untold damage to the local animal population, so well done - saps!

    About 20 years ago there were mink set free, I was at school at the time but my parents were at home on the farm, one mink attacked and killed a lot of our laying hens.
    My father had to kill the mink, he went into the house housing the hens, closed the door behind, he said the mink when cornered was ready to attack him, he killed it with a swipe of a strong piece of rope and it let off a really bad smell.

    Around the same time, the neighbours saw a litter of them in a field so they had started to breed.

    I don't know what the person or people involved were thinking, these animals were better off where they were rather than having them free to do untold damage.
    I feel sorry for the area affected, apart from the local ecology which will be affected, the locals there better watch out if they keep poultry or any other creature that are vunerable to mink attacks.
