Vintage Fur Identification Help?

[cedar]

Hi! My mother picked up this fur cape and I'm trying to figure out what it might be. The guard hairs seem particularly long to me relative to the undercoat, which seems denser and fluffier than I'm used to seeing on mink, if that makes sense. Does anyone have any idea what type of fur it is? It's a relatively cropped cape, lined, with no variety label I can see.

Thank you so much in advance!

It looks like mink dyed muskrat from those photos. Can you please show me a photo of the full garment to be sure?

Thank you so much, Caryn! Here are some photos of the front and back.

Thank you. It is indeed muskrat that was dyed to look like mink.
