Through their ongoing research on fisher, Mae and Shannon of our lab identified a litter of fisher cubs that had been orphaned. The cubs were rescued from sure death and brought to the BC Wildlife Park in Kamloops. Two were subsequently released whereas the third is going to be housed indefinitely at the park. Given that the majority of people have no idea what a fisher is, the presence of ‘Buck’ at the Park is going to do wonders for educating people, similar to the job Bloom was done for badgers.
