A member of this family is called a mustelid; Mustelidae is the largest family in Carnivora. They are found on all continents except Antarctica and Australia, and are a diverse family; sizes (including tails) range from the widespread 17 cm (6.7 in) least weasel to the 1.8 m (5.9 ft) giant otter of Amazonian South America. Habitats vary widely as well, from the arboreal marten to the fossorial European badger to the marine sea otter. (Full list...)
