Mink are not native to Britain, they are an invasive introduction.

Only a century ago American mink were introduced for commercial fur
farming (now banned). Escapes and intentional releases resulted in the
feral American mink population that now breeds and thrives over much of
rural UK.
They are common along waterways. A right pain to rural poultry keepers
and fish ponds, and a threat to several native species.
