Ok, just to have it "officially" here:

I am quite sorry, but my school takes much time at this time and I didnt draw anything yet
By the end of this week I will have done one math-exam and three presentations, so as you might see, quite time consuming (espec. if you calculate my math-skills in )
So I will do my best to get you the next episode-pic as soon as possible.

I wrote some stuff about the Rough-legged Mink, if you want to read:




New Mink-Race encountered: the Rough-legged Mink (mincera lagopus)

The Rough-legged Mink (mincera lagopus) is in size and stature similar to the Striped Mink (mincera tigris), they have communitys in height, movement and frame. The Rough-legged Mink lives in the colder Regions of Minkdom and is adapted to the circumstances: It has a thick, fluffy fur that covers his arms and legs, too. It's soles are covered by a horny skin to isolate against the cold und only few nerves go through the tail, instead of those, many veins run through it to make sure that there is allways enaugh blood in it, the miss of nerves might help agains the cold.
The fur of the Rough-legged Mink is of a white-greyish color to gain him perfect camouflage in sowy regions. It mostly feeds on fish, wich makes him unique, compared to the other known Mink-races because they have a completely herbivore diet, and has a long beak with teeth-like horny excrescenses inside of it to better catch the fish. It's bended claws are made for catching fish, too. The Rough-legged Mink allso catches it's prey in the water, for that he has, similar to the River Mink, he has little membranes between the toes fo his feet. To protect it's eyes, it covers them under a transparent eyelid, similar to that of an owl, as soon as it dives.
The Rough-legged Mink has an interesting migration-habit, similar to that of migrationary birds that migrate to another trackt of land. Rough-legged Minks follow the the cold air-masses in groups of up to five animals and, by this, wander around in a settled region. Minkologists assume that they orientate on the direction of the wind and the season. When there are no or only few fish in a region, the Rough-legged Mink changes it's diet over to roots and nuts, it gets the missing nutrients out of storages in it's body that can feed it over several months. It can allso live without food for several days, during this time the Mink feeds on it's fat-reserves.
During the mating season in late spring all Rough-legged Mink-Groups of an area come together at the largest waters in the region. There the male Minks pose with impressing-gestures in front of the females to attract one.
After the mating the female lays one white egg that is breeded on in a belly-fold. During this period of time the female is dependent on the male as food-supplier.
After about five weeks the young hatches, it can allready see and has a fluffy fur. During the first weeks it often crawls into the belly-fold of the mother again to stay warm. One week after hatching the young is capable of walking and soon after stopping to crawl into the fold of it's mother, the parents teach it how to swim. After about 7 to 10 months the young can hunt fish on it's own and search for other food, but it still needs the protection of it's parents. After two years the young Mink is independent from it's parents and stays in the group for some time untill it finds a female in the next mating-season, then it will join it's group.
