Taxonomically, both American and European Mink used to be placed in the same genus Mustela (" Weasels "), but most recently the American Mink has been re-classified as belonging to its own genus Neovison.

American Mink are believed by some to have contributed to the decline of the less hardy European Mink through competition ( though not through hybridization — native European mink are in fact closer to polecats than to their North American cousins ).

Trapping is used to control or eliminate feral American Mink populations.
