Old (1973) maximum card from Romania: The European Roe Deer (Capreolus capreolus), also known as the Western Roe Deer or chevreuil, is an Eurasian species of deer.

This photo image shows a very delicate fawn of the Roe Deer species.

The Americanization of Bambi:
"The world famous deer Bambi (the eponymous character of the books Bambi, A Life in the Woods, and its sequel Bambi's Children, by Felix Salten) is originally a roe deer. It was only when the story was adapted into the animated feature film Bambi, by the Walt Disney Studios, was Bambi changed to a white-tailed deer. This change was made due to the white-tail being a more familiar species to the mainstream U.S. viewers. Consequently, the setting was also changed to a North American wilderness."

So this is a custom postcard that I created at zazzle.com. Not that I expect anybody to buy it; I'm just making a point. A bon entendeur, salut! :)

Maximum card from Belarus: The European Polecat (Mustela putorius), also known as a fitch, foumart, or foulmart

This species is the wild ancestor of the domesticated ferret, that you can see in pet shops.

"It s a member of the Mustelidae family, and is related to the stoats, otters, and minks."

The Romanian word for Polecat is Dihor.

While in high school in Romania, we used to have fun about that.

If something stinks, then "it smells like Christian Dihor" - in joking reference to the famous brand name of fine perfumes Christian Dior.

The pictorial postmark shows not a polecat, but a fox.

There's a minefield of juicy comments that can be made, but this blog is rated G.

If there is such a thing as the Freedom of Speech, maybe I should create another blog, too.

With no speech restriction, like a stand-up comedian affords to do. :)

"Though polecats are chiefly polygynous, females can be polyandrous.^[5] The sexual conflict of the mating system can change with environmental conditions. Sexual conflict may result in sexually antagonistic co-evolution, in which one sex evolves a "manipulative" character which is countered by a "resistance" trait in the other sex."
