fisher

A much larger version of the Marten or Sable. This animal belongs to the weasel family, and, as such, is related to ferrets, minks, otters and wolverines. It eats squirrels, rabbits, porcupines (a favorite) and even its smaller cousin, the Marten. Have been known to kill bobcats and lynx.

Then fisher, like the badger and the wolverine, is one BADASS animal. They kill porcupines by grabbing them by the nose and flipping them over onto their back. Then they slice open their stomachs and EAT!
