About the size of a domestic cat, the Cretan beech marten (Martes foina) is grayish brown and has a white streak that runs from the animal’s neck to its chest. It creeps in a polecat manner and is an excellent climber and swimmer. The animal eats smaller mammals, fruits, nuts, and eggs. Although it is nocturnal, during mating season, it is more likely to be seen during the day. You may see Cretan beech martens because they often live close to human habitation.
