Local and indigenous names
[golygu | golygu cod]Dialectal English names
[golygu | golygu cod]Probably no other animal on the British list has had as many colloquial names as the polecat. In southern England it was generally referred to as 'fitchou' whereas in the north it was 'foumat or foumard... However there were a host of others including endless spelling variations: philbert, fulmer, fishock, filibart, poulcat, poll cat, etc. Charles Oldham identified at least 20 different versions of the name in the Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire area alone.
—Roger Lovegrove (2007)[2]
Linguistic group or area | Dialectal name |
---|---|
Anglo-Manx | Foul-cat[3] |
Craven/Leeds/South Lancashire | Pow-cat[4][5][6] |
Durham | Foomart[7] |
Herefordshire | Fitchuck[8] |
Lancashire | Foomurt[9] |
Scots | Thummurt[10] Thoomurt[10] |
Yorkshire | Foomerd[11] |
Latin name
[golygu | golygu cod]As well as the several indigenous names referring to smell (see above), the scientific name Mustela putorius is also derived from this species' foul smell. The Latin putorius translates to stench or stink and is the origin of the English word putrid.
Domestication
[golygu | golygu cod]Morphological, cytological and molecular studies confirm the European polecat is the sole ancestor of the ferret, thus disproving any connection with the steppe polecat, which was once thought to have contributed to the ferret's creation.[12] Ferrets were first mentioned by Aristophanes in 450 BC and by Aristotle in 350 BC. Greek and Roman writers in the first century AD were the first to attest on the ferret's use in bolting rabbits from their burrows. The first accurate descriptions of ferrets come from Strabo during 200 AD, when ferrets were released onto the Balearic Islands to control rabbit populations. As the European rabbit is native to the Iberian Peninsula and northwest Africa, the European polecat likely was first domesticated in these regions.[13]
The ferret and European polecat are similar in both size and portions, to the point that dark-coloured ferrets are almost indistinguishable from their wild cousins, though the ferret's skull has a smaller cranial volume, and has a narrower postorbital constriction.[12] Compared to the European polecat, the ferret has a much smaller brain, though this comparison has not been made with Mediterranean polecats, from which ferrets likely derive.[14] The theory of a Mediterranean origin is further strengthened because the ferret is less tolerant of cold than northern polecat subspecies.[15] The ferret is also more fertile than the polecat, producing two or more litters annually, as opposed to just one.[16][17] Unlike other subspecies, which are largely solitary, the ferret will readily live in social groups.[18] The ferret is also slower in all its movements than the polecat, and hardly ever makes any use of its anal scent glands.[19] Overall, the ferret represents a neotenous form of polecat.[20]

THE DOLGFJLLEY TRAGEDY. "DEATH OF MRS EDWARDS, DOLSERAU. The death took place yesterday afternoon of Mrs Edwards, of Dolserau, the widow of Mr Charles Edwards, at one time member of ;Par- liament for Windsor. While she was being driven to church on Sunday week, the horse swerved, and the driver was killed on the spot. After running some distance, the horse fell, and Mrs 'Edwards, assisted \bv her maid, was able to leave the brougham practically uninrjured. Mrs Edwards stayed by the roadside while the maid -went back to the driver, and on the maid's .return she found Mrs Edwards lying uncon- scious and seriously injured thirty yards fur- ther on. It is believed Mrs Edwards attempted to ipacify the horse, and that she was dragged along the road. She was 78 years of age.
