Hi Joanna, if you mean adrenal tumours we see virtually non in the UK
but ferrets that were exported to the US and Canada have then turned
adrenal. I used to have a lot of bone cancers years ago and culled the
bloodline (Albinos). The beauty of UK ferrets is there are still 100s if
not 1000s of bloodline to choose from but they are not all perfect
health wise and we all can get caught out sometimes. Chris.
