This foot showed up this morning in the middle of our driveway near our pole barn. The pole barn.is 75 yards from the cabin. I raked this area yesterday so I know it just showed up. The fur has some brown to it and some white or grey hairs. What do you think?

I bet a fisher is quick enough to kill a porcupine fairly easily. Coyotes are smart, so they could figure out a way to kill one without taking too much damage.

Funny I found a freshly dead baby rabbit in my raised garden box yesterday. I can’t for the life of me figure out how it got in there. It was buried under a couple inch of dirt to. I was digging to put in a bundle of crabapple seedling and there he was.

Fishers are bad ass animals.
