Fifty-five stomachs and 33 scats were analysed by identifying indigestible remains. Fish formed main prey (49% occurrence) birds mammals 28% 23% respectively. Most fish eaten Salmonidae (brown trout salmon). No remains eels found. Mink may compete with otters for food, but smaller taken greater use land separates it from otter. Mink seem to be occupying a vacant feeding niche
