1. The European version of the Marten, which is NOT a rodent, but a CARNIVORE, a hunter, a predator, a member of the weasel family, and is thus related to minks, ferrets, otters and wolverines. The Sable eats rabbits, birds, etc, but, mostly lives on a diet of squirrels and chipmunks. Like most weasel family members, it is known for its exquisite fur.

2. Mercury's version of the Ford Taurus.
1. The Sable is NOT a rodent, the Marten EATS rodents!

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!

I sat in my Jeep, up on a hill, and watched through my binoculars as a 35 pound carcajou took over a caribou carcass from seven 100 pound wolves.
