Saw a beautiful and good size Fisher today on Long Island. We were bicycling along towards the end of the island, about 200 yards from the landing at around 9:30 a.m. and a large Fisher went across the road. After crossing the road, the animal stood on its hind legs and looked back across the road as if waiting for smaller kin to cross. We waited awhile but nothing showed up. This was a beautiful animal. I hear they can be ferocious for their prey (fox, racoons, other small mammals).
