Default RE: Help Trapping a "Fisher cat"

Hello,

Thanks for the reply ! I certainly agree with you and initially that is what we suspected. However, the three cats that were killed and decapitated were found dead inside of an enclosed barn. Therefore, we felt it must have been something else.

This fisher cat, if that is what it is, has killed more domestic farm animals than I've ever seen. I kind of worried there is no stopping it! I'll have to go back to the nearby creek I think I found a paw print and maybe I can get a good photograph of it.

i dont know about fishers but i know alot of birds of prey will take heads off and leave the rest...i know owls do that frequently. they killed a bunch of my buddys ringnecks that way...

fishers certainly are a predator...i know once we started spotting them around my buddies camp the squirrel population dropped to about nothing...

one piece of advice....stay within the laws...or call your local game warden to help out...with it killing that many animals they should help...

good luck..
