Ferrets are not aggressive at all. It's the humans that abuses the animals.
When ferrets are babies, they explore everything with their mouth as any animal does , and if they tend to nip a little to hard, you train them as well. Frequent handling and socialization with humans is necessary, otherwise they will bite out of fear, just like any animal. Ferrets are not caged animals, you cage them for their protection, leaving them caged all the time, and improper handling could lead to aggression and fear biting. Ferrets have been used for centuries to hunt rodents, rabbits and rats, and can be aggressive towards these type of animals, it's a natural instinct. Mine aren't to bad. I suppose that it is a personality thing with them. My first one love to bite me when playing, but the 2 I have now just nip. Think of them as puppies that will never grow up. They LOVE to play, and don't always understand that you are not a chew toy!

Female ferrets have seasons. And in those seasons, it's not really about the male "attracting" the female. It principally involves the male ferret leaping on the back of the female ferret, biting her neck so as to hold her in place, and consummating the "relationship".
