There are two living species referred to as minks: the American mink and the European mink. The extinct sea mink is related to the American mink, but was much larger. All three species are dark-colored, semiaquatic, carnivorous mammals of the family Mustelidae, which also includes weasels, otters and ferrets. The American mink is larger and more adaptable than the European mink. Due to variations in size, an individual mink usually cannot be determined as European or American with certainty without looking at the skeleton.

After a three-race west coast roadtrip, NASCAR heads back east to its first short-track race of the season at Martinsville, the only track to host Sprint Cup races every year since the divisionâs inception in 1949. At 0.526 miles in length, Martinsville Speedway is the shortest track on the Sprint Cup circuit. Because of its size and shape â 55-foot width, 588-foot turns (12 degrees of banking) and flat 800-foot straightaways â race cars rarely reach 100 mph.
