FRIDAY, AUGUST 17, 2001 The Bureau of Land Management is considering introducing about 20 black-footed ferrets for a new recovery colony in Montana. The ferret is one of the most endangered mammal in North America. It is being reintroduced in the Plains, including a site on the Fort Belknap Reservation. Tribes are seeking federal funds to help restore the population by starting prairie dog programs. The ferret feasts solely on prairie dogs. Get the Story:
