Sweet. Cool critters.

[Jackson Marsh]

That’s very cool. I've never seen one.

Very cool, been a while since I've seen one. Once had a really big one see me in my tree and start climbing up. I pointed my rifle barrel right in his face and shook my head then spit right between his eyes. He slowly turned around and left. They are smart critters.

Good pic!

Arrowed this little bugger bout 10 years ago

And thanks for not calling it a Fisher cat.

Lol!
Rrrrarrr (cat noise)

I'd rather call it by the real name.

That's so cool! I've never seen one, maybe this year.

Over the past few years I’ve gotten more and more pics of Fisher here in SW New York

I saw one up north while bowhunting many year ago. From a distance I thought it was a black bear coming thru the woods. As it got closer I finally figured out it was a fisher.

23 years ago in NW PA while turkey hunting, I had two fishers walk up to me and one put his nose on the tip of my shotgun and sniffed. The other stayed about 5 feet away. I never moved and they eventually wandered away. At the time they were extremely rare and honestly didn't know they were even in the area. Called a friend at the Game Commission and they had released a few pairs a couple years before in central PA. Apparently they travel huge distances and my sighting was one of the first in the area. Not many times when your hunting or just in the woods and you have that close of an encounter with an animal, let alone one you didn't even know was around!

Wow, that's pretty crazy!

Do they get big enough to look like a bear? Our bears tend to be pretty small most of the time.

They're common here. I see them from the stand every so often... Coyote too. The population around here generally hates them. They tear up the chickens, etc. that the suburbia liberals love to keep.
