Default Almost Positive a Fisher (FisherCat) killed 3 chickens Thursday night?

I Live in Roxbury NJ morris county NJ.

Thursday night an animal got into my chicken coop and killed 3 chickens.
I found 2 holes that were dug under the fence. Both holes were only about 3" round.
The three chickens had severed necks and skin was ripped open by neck area. 2 were found by one of the holes and the animal tried to remove them through the hole. The one chickens neck was eaten off from the outside.
Anyone seen fisher cats around at all. Seems this nasty wolverine bloke predator is makingva comeback in N NJ.

Well, I caught one of the predators. A mink. Relocated him about 5 miles away. I still feel a fisher cat was also out there the day the chickens were killed because of how it tried to drag 2 chickens out of the coop larger hole that was dug.

That mink will be back
