Introduction
The ferret (Mustela putorius furo) has historically been used as a mammalian model of development with a gestation period of 42 days. More recently this animal model has been used to study neural cortex development.
Note that ferrets cannot be imported into Australia.

Ovary
The data below is from a 1970 study of ferret ovary development.[5]
- the meiotic phase of the oocytes and the differentiation of the glandular interstitial tissue take place over about the same
postnatal period.
- 10 - 21 days - active meiosis occurred
- 14 days onwards - degeneration and absorption of many oocytes, not all oocytes pass into the meiotic phase. Lipid-containing interstitial cells differentiate from medullary stroma.
- at end of meiotic phase - cortex of the ovary is reduced (60-80%) of the original oocytes have disappeared.
- degenerating oocytes present in the lumen of rete tubules, that originate in the ovarian medulla
- 16 days - primordial follicles with flattened surrounding cells (pregranulosa cells) form from the fibrous stromal tissue among the oocytes and earlier oogonia.
- 21 days - typical glandular interstitial tissue occupies most of the ovary.
