Study documents record 118-kilometer dispersal by young female fisher in New Hampshire
Researchers at the University of New Hampshire have documented the farthest trek of a young female fisher (Pekania pennanti) moving 118 kilometers (over 73 miles) from Durham to the outskirts of Lincoln, a small town in New Hampshire's White Mountains. This trip marks the longest known recorded dispersal for the species.
