Here are 1 european weasel and 2 stoats, their larger relative.
I can not tell the difference between them and the
american species, but they were scanned from a booklet on
european mammals, so I assume they are the right ones
(sorry for dutch filenames, wezel=3Dweasel, hermelijn=3Dstoat)
btw pictures are copyrighted, no websites (on your own risk!)
As you see they are all very similar.

Stoat (Mustela erminea)
Stoats are elusive predators, with long, slender bodies and short legs. The pelage is reddish to ginger in colour with white or cream underparts. Some individuals turn either partially or fully white in winter. The tail has a black tip, a feature that allows stoats to be distinguished from weasels. The head, which is supported by a fairly long neck, is triangular in shape, and features bright black eyes, long whiskers and round ears. Male stoats are much larger than females. At birth the kits are covered with fine white hair, and a dark 'mane' of fur forms around the neck after the third week. |
