The lesser of two weasels
Only the smallest mammalian carnivore.
That’s definitely not the world’s smallest carnivore, but it is a small carnivore
They probably meant carnivore mammal.
Edit: it’s the smallest species of the carnivora order. So not the “smallest carnivore”, but “smallest carnivorian”.
Right? Shit, we got single-cell carnivores in this world.
Any less weasel and BAM, got yourself a mouse.
Best mustelid. It’s incredible that they are able to take rabbits as prey. And their strategy is absolutely amazing: confusion. They do their weasel war dance and the rabbit doesn’t know what the fuck is going on until its neck is in the tiny mouth of a creature 1/10th its size.
An absolute unit.
