A Barefoot Coyote Peterson Tries to Communicate With a Very Playful Baby Alaskan Mink

While on location at the Steve Kroschel Wilderness Center in Haines, Alaska, adventurer Coyote Peterson was introduced to a very playful baby Alaskan mink, with whom he tried to communicate. The feisty mustelid, however, was more interested in Coyote’s barefoot toes.

While visiting Steve Kroschel’s Wildlife Center in Haines, Alaska the Brave Wilderness team was privileged to meet many amazing animals but this little Mink was by far the most entertaining in interact with! Leaping and bounding all around Coyote and Steve the Mink sure showed off its speed and agility. Just when you’d think it was ready to calm down and take a rest it was back in the water for some more splashing around because playtime is never over when you’re a mustelid!
