Weasels are small carnivorous mammals that lived during the ice ages, into the modern day.
Traits
Small, meat-eating mammals, weasels are long and thinly built, with short limbs and often sporting long tails. Weasels have short snouts and a good sense of smell.
History
Weasels lived among other animals of the ice age, with one weasel, a male named Buck, ending up in an underground world populated by dinosaurs. They were among the animals to survive into the present era.
Behind the Scenes
Because of the time period that the film series takes place in, the weasels in the series could be based on Palaeogale, an extinct species of weasel.
