Even the yellow-throated mink that can subdue the giant panda is very rare all over the world. What are its characteristics?

Yellow-throated mink is also called honey dog. This creature is about the same size as a cat, but its head and trunk are longer and its claws are sharper than cats. Most of the hair on the body is brown or black, but the color of the hair from the shoulder to the hip gradually changes from yellow to dark brown, with some white hair at the edge of the mouth and yellow hair at the throat. Some yellow-throated minks have brown hair on their bellies, but some are yellow and some are brown. The weight of yellow-throated mink is generally between 1.5~2 kg, the body length is between 55~65 cm and the body height is about 20 cm. The tail of this creature is relatively long, generally between 40 and 44 centimeters in length.

Yellow-throated minks especially like to live in mountains or hills. Generally, this kind of animal will build its nest in a tree hole, and some will build it in a cave. Some yellow-throated minks live alone, but others like to move in groups, mostly from early morning to dusk.

Many people may not know much about the yellow-throated mink. The yellow-throated mink is a master hunter in nature, and can even kill some prey bigger than itself. The yellow-throated mink is very secretive and quite fierce. In addition, its eyesight is particularly good, so it is more effective in hunting. The yellow-throated mink is a real food. Animals usually eat some insects, some fish and some birds and animals, but honey is actually their favorite food.

Although the yellow-throated mink is not common, it is not a protected animal in China because it is widely distributed and its population is very stable. But even so, if we see this creature in the wild, we can't kill it easily, or we will bear the corresponding responsibility.
