SIKSUR is correct- they are not cats. Don't know how they got "cat" added to their name. I had one race across the street in front of me a couple years ago on Route 109 near the intersection of Route 171 (fisher came racing out of the little cemetary on Route 109). At first I didn't know what creature it was... I didn't know that fishers were that long-this guy was probably 4 feet from head to tail-maybe more. Big tail, and fast as the wind. I didn't know there was a trapping season-I'm not a hunter, but think trapping is cruel way to go.
