Ermine Ermine are found all over Canada, northern USA, and Eurasia. They make their dens in the old roots of a tree or in the crevice of a rock. Ermines are capable of having several dens or in the roots of trees farther south, but there are no trees on the tundra. The ermine is a small animal that weighs between 3 - 15 ounces. They look much like a Ferret only larger. In the spring and summer the ermine's coat is chocolate brown with a white underbelly and a black tip on the tail. In the winter the coat turns entirely white except for the black end of its tail. The ermine is a carnivore and eats rabbits, small insects and rodents, birds and amphibians. Their ermine paws have claws which enables it to dig. The front feet are smaller than the back which helps it fit into small, tight spaces. The coat of the ermine changes with the seasons and camouflages it from predators. In winter the ermine's coat is white blending in with the snowy environment, but when warmer weather comes their fur will change to brown to camouflage themselves.
