INFO:
The marbled polecat (Vormela peregusna) is a small mammal belonging to the monotypic genus Vormela within the mustelid subfamily Ictonychinae. Vormela is from the German word Würmlein, which means "little worm". The specific name peregusna comes from perehuznya (перегузня), which is Ukrainian for "polecat".Marbled polecats are generally found in the drier areas and grasslands of southeastern Europe to western China. Like other members of the Ictonychinae, it can emit a strong-smelling secretion from anal sacs under the tail when threatened.

The marbled polecat is an endangered species of carnivorous mammals from the Mastelidae family. This rare species is on the Ukrainian List of Endangered Species. The marble polecat has a multicolored fur. The animal's favorite habitat is grasslands. In Ukraine, it is mainly found in Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. Marbled polecats are usually active during the night or at dusk, spending most of their days in burrows.

Kind of like a Ferret.

"From a session of equine-assisted therapy for Ukrainian soldiers who were in the combat zone at the Spirit Center on April 7, 2023 in Kyiv.

The founders of the therapy center said that at least 5,000 children have turned to the center for mental healing, as well as more than 300 military personnel, some of whom suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder."
