                The closely-related European Polecat is also native to Europe, North America and Asia.

                Fun extra bit of trivia, it’s believed that’s what ferrets were domesticated from because they can interbreed.

                Edit: To make things even crazier, I just looked it up on Wikipedia to make sure I was right, and it’s now believed that the domestic ferret was domesticated from a North African breed of European polecat.
