Baby muskrats, known as "mice," a few days old and all from one litter taken from a 

 hill on Marsh Island in July. Note that the tiny fur-bearers are well furred even this 

 early in life.

Baby muskrat about five days old. Not only can its fur be noted in the photograph, 



but the guard hairs are well out.
