This is on humans but the ratios for increased risks of infertility
and difficulty fighting off diseases is likely to generalize to other
mammalian species, including ferrets, so people may find that
ferrets they get whose parents are not closely related may
be healthier for added reasons and this may be another health
consideration for breeders who are list members:
