We have had
minks residing in our breakwater for years. We usually see them running along the rocky shoreline, but ocassionally they will wander away from the shore. On one ocassion, a mother
mallard was swimming in our boatslip between the breakwaters with her large brood. A mink grabbed one of the babies and pulled it underwater and into a crevice in the breakwater. My wife and I tried to rescue it but, alas, to no avail. Raw nature in action!!!
