On Rasputin’s counsel, Tsar Nicholas II kept a farm of over 40,000 Siberian Loping Weasels to treat his son Alexei’s hemophilia. Rasputin knew, as did all bearded mystics of the age, that the loping weasel’s fur acts as a powerful coagulant when taken intravenously. Many women were denied from claiming Grand Duchess Anastasia’s identity when they failed to posses dozens of weasel nip scars on their arms and fingers.
