Polecat description
Polecat is the common name for mammals in the order Carnivora and subfamily Mustelinae. Polecats do not form a single taxonomic rank; the name is applied to several species broadly similar to European polecats, the only species native to the British Isles.
* In the United States, the term polecat is sometimes applied to the black-footed ferret, a native member of the Mustelinae, and (loosely) to skunks, which are only distantly related.
* Despite the name, polecats are more closely related to dogs than cats, which is why they belong to the suborder of Caniformiae.
* In Canada, the term polecat is sometimes applied to electric utility linemen.
