Not sure...in first pic, tail looks a tad scrawny for a Fisher, and maybe legs are too long, stands taller. Second pic sure looks like one... hard to tell.... sure  could be!  :confused:

Must be DE!  My brother has trapped a few in Ottertail County in the last few years.  We didn't even know they were there.  Got them in his fox and coyote traps.  He puts a strong plastic tub over them and let's them out of the leg hold trap.  LOL  He does that with skunks sometimes too.  He has even slowly walked up and let some skunks go without the tub.  He said you can kind of tell if it is going to spray.   :crazy:

I'm thinking an otter would have a thicker tail.

My last 3 labs have been woodchuck killers.  I used to shoot 2 a year and now the dogs kill and retrieve right to me about 2 a year.  It is a great trait that started with Willy 1 and he passed it on the Sammy and now Buddy.  Friendly loving dogs that you would never think would have the gumption to kill an animal.  I leave them alone.  It is all them not a bit of interruption from me.
