Subject: [Tweeters] Fisher in Pacific County

From: Emily Winstrom - emily.winstrom at gmail.com

We're volunteering at Cape Disappointment State Park, and our ranger
suggested another possibility: a wolverine. A wolverine, or wolverines,
have been spotted in the area, supported with photographic evidence.
This was in 2019.
