marten
The martens constitute the genus ''Martes'' within the subfamily Mustelinae, in the family Mustelidae. Martens are slender, agile animals, adapted to living in taigas, and are found in coniferous and northern deciduous forests across the Northern Hemisphere. They have bushy tails, and large paws with partially retractible claws. The fur varies from yellowish to dark brown, depending on the species, and, in many cases, is valued by fur trappers. ==Etymology== The Modern English "''marten''" comes from the Middle English "''martryn''", in turn borrowed from the Anglo-French "''martrine''" and Old French "''martre''" (Latin "''martes''"), itself from a Germanic source, cf. Old English ''mearþ'', Old Norse ''mörðr'', Old High German, and Yiddish מאַרדאַר ''mardar''.
