Do ermines communicate at all do they make sound to communicate?

Ermines, or stoats, do communicate with each other, primarily through body language and vocalizations. They can produce a variety of sounds, including hisses, growls, and squeaks, especially during mating season or when threatened. These vocalizations help convey different messages, such as warnings or expressions of distress. Overall, while they rely more on visual and olfactory cues, sound does play a role in their communication.
