It must be a joke, but I don't get the punch line

HOQUIAM, Wash. -- Guy bursts into an apartment carrying a dead weasel.

"Why are you carrying a weasel?" asks the occupant.

"It's not a weasel! It's a marten!" the guy sez.

Then he punches him.

The attacker was apparently looking for his girlfriend and had gone to her former boyfriend's apartment Monday where the victim was a guest. Police later found the 33-year-old Hoquiam man arguing with his girlfriend at another location and arrested him after a fight. He said he had found the marten dead near Hoquiam, but police don't know why he carried it with him.

#3   "It's not a weasel, it's a marten,"

That was the punch line?

#1  It does sound like the phrase "pining for the fjords" was missing...

But then it would be a pine marten.
