MINI BELIEVE IT OR NOT –

In 1999, for a concert in the UK welcoming in the new millennium, a group of highly trained ferrets were used to lay cable through small tunnels under the stage.

Using tiny nylon harnesses, the cables were rigged up to the ferrets which were then encouraged down the tunnel entrance using meat
Organizers found it impossible to use rods to push the cables
The tiny tunnels twisted and turned around underground

MINI BION EXTRAS

Ferrets have been domesticated since about 3000 BCE—500 years longer than the house cat.
The U. S. Space Command in Colorado used a ferret to help rewire a new computerized command center.



MINI BION
“BIONs” – short for Believe It or Not – is the word we use at Ripley’s to refer to anything that is unbelievable and worthy to become part of Ripley’s lore and collection.
