SNP markers associated with body size and pelt length in American mink (Neovison vison) [PDF]
BMC Genetics, 2018 Background Identification of genes underlying production traits is a key aim of the mink research community. Recent availability of genomic tools have opened the possibility for faster genetic progress in mink breeding.

The Forms of Stereotypic Behaviour in Farmed Mink (Neovison vison) [PDF]
, 2016 Stereotypic behaviours (SBs) are commonly grouped together under the implicit assumption that they are homogeneous. However, little research has investigated whether this is valid. Thus, this thesis investigated whether various SB forms are homogeneous in Carnivora, using the American mink (Neovison vison) as a model.

Improving Trapping Efficiency for Control of American Mink (Neovison vison) in Patagonia. [PDF]
Animals (Basel), 2022 Two main challenges when controlling alien American mink (Neovison vison) in Patagonia are to maximize campaign efficacy and cost-effectiveness and to avoid trapping native species. We designed and tested new variants of collapsible wire box traps, compared the efficacy of a food-based bait and a scent lure and compared catch rates in different seasons

An Ethogram of the Reproductive Behaviour of the American Mink (Neovison vison) in Farmed Conditions. [PDF]
Animals (Basel), 2023 Ethograms can serve as benchmarks against which abnormal animal behaviour can be identified, and then normal behaviour can be restored by appropriately modifying the environment in which an individual resides. The aim of the present study was to create an ethogram of the reproductive behaviour of American mink kept in farmed conditions.

Genetic variability of American mink (Neovison vison) in Lithuania
The American mink (Neovison vison), a species native to North America, has been successfully introduced and established in the wild across Europe. As a result, it has largely displaced the native European mink (Mustela lutreola). In Lithuania, the American mink has also been observed to negatively impact native wildlife, including small mammals, fish ...
