spring one,\u201d explains Michael Tweedie in the December 1979 issue of <em>Wildlife, <\/em>referring to the cover image of a stoat. \u201cThe white fur is good camouflage in the snow, and the individual white hairs are filled with air, thus providing a much warmer coat than the dark coloured spring and summer fur.\u201d He concludes, \u201cI think it is time that it was recognised as a useful and attractive little animal.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-uagb-section uagb-section__wrap uagb-section__background-color
