Why are Wisconsin's pine martens failing to thrive?

Why are Wisconsin's pine martens failing to thrive? This pint-sized predator is a member of the weasel family. The animal was driven from the state by excessive trapping around the turn of the century. Wisconsin researchers re-introduced pine martens in the late 1970's but they failed to take a foothold. In Wisconsin gives you an update on the three year research project to find out why.
