Female ferrets will die if they dont mate

Amplify’d from www.todayifoundout.com

Today I found out that a female ferret (A.K.A. Jill) will die if she doesn’t mate.  It’s one thing to say, I swear I am going to die if I don’t get some soon.  For Jill however, when sheis in heat, if she doesn’t find a mate she will secrete high levels of estrogen and if this hormone stays in the blood for a prolonged period of time, it will cause a progressive depression of  bone marrow that results in a severe, life threatening aplastic anemia which is fatal.
