|  Fishers in northeast CT?
No, not fishers as in rod and reel, I was thinking fisher cats.
I saw something cross the road yesterday that looked like a cross between an otter and a ferret. Bushy fur, dark brown. I was able to stop and watch it for a while.
Are they common this far south in New England?

Ridgefield, CT | Had one in our yard last winter (Ridgefield)...caught it attacking our friendly wild rabbit. We scared it off, then looked it up on wikipedia...'twas a fisher cat. |

I have not seen one but I heard they are in the state. A lot of animals are coming back. Just look at all the turkeys!
Before you came to town there was even a moose that visited Putnam. He did not make it to far he crossed RT 21 at the Thompson line sadly the SUV driven by my oil burner repair man happen to be driving there at the exact moment. |

I've lived in CT all my life and saw a fisher cat for the first time about a month ago. It was very stealthy and careful in its movements, much like a fox. It had a beautiful thick coat. From what I've heard, you don't want to mess with one...
