Hi, James.

Thanks for having me.

I'm excited to hear about today's topic.

It's such a romantic image, right?

And they're gone now, but they were once so many.

Like, every time we drive through southwest Virginia, I'm in central Virginia, so when we drive through southwestern Virginia, my husband always brings up this account that he read of someone witnessing the buffalo stampeding through the Cumberland Gap.

Oh, wow.

Right down at the tip of southwestern Virginia.

And just looking at that place and imagining buffalo there, like,

You have to romanticize it.

That's incredible.

Just four days of human stink.

It really starts to get good.

They look so pettable, but they're really not.

When you said there was going to be something about ferrets, I was thinking about it and I realized all domesticated animals were wild animals.

And it never occurred to me that a ferret could live outside.

Oh, do they live in like societies?

Do they live like a prairie dogs?

So do ferrets live in like ferret villages?

Sorry I said he looks gross.
