Mustela Lutreola

The European mink (Mustela lutreola), also known as the Eurasian mink, is a semiaquatic species of mustelid native to Europe.

Males measure 373–430 mm (14.7–16.9 in) in body length, while females measure 352–400 mm (13.9–15.7 in). Tail length is 153–190 mm (6.0–7.5 in) in males and 150–180 mm (5.9–7.1 in).

The European mink is listed by the IUCN as Critically Endangered due to an ongoing reduction in numbers, having been calculated as declining more than 50% over the past three generations and expected to decline at a rate exceeding 80% over the next three generations.
Historical data for Croatia were found only in the reports from the second half of IX. century.
