Lecture – Finding Fishers in the Granite State: Tracking the Population and
Survival of New Hampshire’s Elusive Mesocarnivore
by Remington Moll, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Wildlife Ecology and Management, UNH
Fishers (sometimes mistakenly called “fisher cats”) are native to New Hampshire, but their populations appear to have
declined in recent years. Join Dr. Moll as he shares the natural history and ecology of this fascinating and sometimes
misunderstood species. He will also provide an update of what biologists are learning through ongoing research on
fisher population dynamics and survival across New Hampshire.
