How did you determine that this was a hybrid?
~Thylo
Zootierliste lists it as a hyprid between Ferret and Polecat.
That listing is from 2022. It could be a hybrid, it wasn't signed, but Wildwood keeps wild-type polecat as well.

Really enjoying the thread so far German. Are those really all the invertrebates though? I can ofcourse understand you won't add every butterfly, coral or sea anemone in here
@Canihelpyou?
I use Zootierliste for the domestics, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and Mammals. Unfortunatly they do not list intervertebrates on Zootierliste.
I did use Zootierlexikon for the intervertebrates. With the Butterflys i am not an expert on this Animals and so i have only added the Butterfly Species i have identified.
