Historical and contemporary DNA indicate fisher decline and isolation occurred prior to the European settlement of California.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

Establishing if species contractions were the result of natural phenomena or human induced landscape changes is essential for managing natural populations. Fishers (Martes pennanti) in California occur in two geographically and genetically isolated populations in the northwestern mountains and southern Sierra Nevada. Their isolation is hypothesized to have resulted from a decline in abundance and distribution...
