Abstract:

This report contains the U.S. Rocky Mountain fisher survey protocol.

Three goals of the survey are:
1). To delineate the geographic range of fisher in the Rocky Mountains.
2). To determine which Rocky Mountain fisher populations have native genes and which fisher
populations are compromised of reintroduced individuals.
3). To index the abundance of fisher (e.g., minimum number of individuals alive) in each
population through the use of DNA.
