Mink

This little mink was born a bit different from his litter mates. Upon his birth he had small growths upon his back, similar to tumors. But within mere days they had emerged from his back in the form of spines. He cried and cried, especially after removal was attempted. It was decided that it was better for his health to leave the spines for the time ebing, until we can further study how they affect the poorly pup.
