I think this mammal is a Fisher...

It was much larger than a Mink or Long-Tailed Weasel, with massive paws...

I was birdwatching in the woods along the river, and suddenly had the surprise and pleasure to observe this individual as it foraged back and forth along logs and brush piles, not too far from my position. I remained standing in place, and it went this way and that, sometimes assuming an erect posture on its haunches.

Found near the riverbank in the east central section of Iwen Park, in south Fargo, ND.
