Man is the greatest predetor. Anyway I don't think it has anything to do with that, WI just has more deer. I would rather live in Maine too... thats why I do. I got a fisher on video while bow hunting the other day. The night before I saw the biggest racked buck I ever had in bow range. I was hunting by the eastern river in Dresden. I couldn't get a shot off, so the next night I put down some doe pee, and this fisher came and followed the pee trail right up to my tree.
