Back in England, where he was raised, Felix, a hairless ferret with bloodred eyes, was thought to be one of the greatest hunters of them all, able to force his way down any hole in the earth and drive his prey up to the surface to be destroyed. However, when the Breeder decides to ship him and the other ferrets in the barn off to the colony of New Zealand to help exterminate the native pest populations, Felix begins to question the part he has played in the seemingly unending cycle of violence as he encounters a vast new array of mysterious creatures that he must hunt down and eliminate. Will he continue to do Man's bidding and enjoy the rewards bestowed upon him by his human handlers? Or will this strange land he has been sent to inspire a change of heart in him that will alter the course of his destiny forever? Based on actual historical events, Felix the Red is the epic adventure about how one humble ferret's moral awakening emboldens him to break the chains of his bondage and lead an entire population to freedom.
