Biology:List of fictional musteloids

Short description: None

This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.

The following list of fictional musteloids is subsidiary to the list of fictional animals. This includes weasels, ferrets, minks, otters, martens, skunks, raccoons, and red pandas.

Fictional badgers are instead found within the list of fictional badgers.

Fictional raccoons are found in the list of fictional raccoons.

If a character appears in more than one medium, it is sorted under the primary one. Thus, despite occasional appearances in licensed video games, Pepé Le Pew is listed under the List of fictional musteloids in animation.
