Preconditioning is a process of exposing captive juvenile ferrets to natural prairie dog burrow systems and prairie dog prey during their early developmental stages of life. Ferrets who will be reintroduced are placed in large, outdoor pens for extended periods to prepare them for life in the wild. Preconditioning has significantly enhanced the survival of captive reared ferrets reintroduced into the wild.
