Commonly identified with the weasel, Mustela altaica, which is found in mountains of Asia, from Russian Central Asia to Korea to northern India, at elevations up to 3,500 m or more (animaldiversity.org). Jam-dpal describes 2 kinds, a first one being similar but smaller than a polecat, and a second one named ne'u le, coming from Bhutan. Das gives ne'u le and dbyi mong under the heading sre mo/sre mong. Ne'u le may be a related mustelid like a ferret-badger. Lepcha and Bhotia peoples in northeast India keep the Burmese ferret-badger in their homes to control insect and rodent pests and is used as a source of food, fur, and medicines by the local people (animaldiversity.org) Johannes Schmidt (talk) 16:05, 14 February 2024 (EST)
