WARREN COUNTY, N.Y. — During an investigation into unprovoked animal attacks in Warren County, an “aggressive” fisher, a type of weasel, was located and killed.

Wednesday morning, Warren County Public Health staff said two people were bitten by wildlife, potentially the same animal, while walking in Hudson Pointe Nature Preserve in Queensbury.

“Both people were walking on trails in the preserve when the small animal, possibly a fisher or similar creature, attacked in unprovoked incidents Wednesday morning,” according to a release from the county.

Neither person involved in the attacks were seriously injured, however, one required medical attention.

The NY State Department of Environmental Conservation responded to the nature preserve Wednesday afternoon, and found the “aggressive” fisher, and killed it.
