Comment

This coin celebrates the marbled polecat, an endangered species of carnivorous mammals from the Mastelidae family. This rare species is on the Ukrainian List of Endangered Species. The marble polecat has a multicolored fur. The animal's favorite habitat is grasslands. In Ukraine, it is mainly found in Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. Marbled polecats are usually active during the night or at dusk, spending most of their days in burrows.
