Ferret - Wikipedia.org

This quote was added by user040416
The name "ferret" is derived from the Latin furittus, meaning "little thief," a likely reference to the common ferret penchant for secreting away small items. The Greek word ictis occurs in a play written by Aristophanes, The Acharnians, in 425 BC. Whether this was a reference to ferrets, polecats, or the similar Egyptian mongoose is uncertain.
