Trail Cam Pic - What is this?
 

I got this on my trail cam -- it kind of looks like a squirrel, but am not sure. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dave

It's probably a fisher, in my opinion. I've seen half a dozen while hunting or hiking here in PA. They're the size of a small cat but shaped more like a big squirrel. They're a voracious predator, hunt things like squirrels, rabbits, and porqupines, and climb trees very well.

Fisher or pine marten, looks too big for a pine marten.

I'd say thats a fisher. I've seen them in PA 3 times. Where you located?

definitely a fisher.

Definetely a Fisher

I live in Central Wisconsin, but my land's in Northern Wisconsin -- Tomahawk. I've never seen or heard of them before. I did a little checking -- they're kind of nasty little things. I watched a Youtube video of one tangling with a fox, and the fox was losing.

Thanks for all the replies.

I just saw a Fisher last week while bow hunting in Marquette County Wi. (Central) and your trail cam photos look like a Fisher. The size of a large cat long black/brown fur with bushy tail.
