Okay— remember this creature from the other day
And no one (including myself) can seem to figure out what it is?
Well, here it is again. I wish I could get a good photo, one that could identify it.
Here is a pig caught in our yard. I only saw it once.
Not this! This is a Badger!! 
Ahummmmmmmmmm and we know this one.
SKUNK!!!
Here is the badger
But this?! I can’t figure it out–although, I think this is different than the one at the top
This one is easy to recognize
Here is a porcupine
Just a huge puzzle.

You know I think it is a huge possibility. Although, the DOW guy said it’s can be. Although, he didn’t give me a clue of what it is.

Hi Linda, maybe you can check out the footprints in the daylight. Could it be a young bear? Has the garbage been disturbed? Hope you find out soon. We all want to know! Do you have a government trapper in your area? If there are tracks or it left a pile on the trail. They would know. Worry about your pets.

No tracks (too much rain) no poop…I keep looking and watching. Sure is a puzzle. I keep our fur kids inside at night. Too many predators out there.

Linda, that looks suspiciously like a bears’ butt walkin off. 🐻 Maybe a cub? Cuz it doesn’t look very big… yet.
If it’s not a porcupine.
Not a possum.
Not a badger.
Doesn’t look like a wild boar. Or a dog.
Not Petunia the skunk… Pretty much leaves a 🐻

Could it be a marmot or wolverine?

I’m thinking it might be—although, they are normally in high altitudes

It looks almost like a wolverine, doesn’t it? The tail brought wolverine to mind for me. Probably not, some scat or a good print for the local wildlife officer. Good luck finding out. Would be good to know.

I’m thinking Wolverine also. But the DOW guy said I was dream’n. Although, he didn’t know what it was either.

Probably a very young wolverine, kicked out of the house and told to make it on his own, and now wandered completely out of his range looking for love in all the wrong places. Sometimes you just can’t account for what being young and dumb will do.

Definitely an ET! It seems to me you have have eliminated the local critters so why not expand the search to something more exotic and dare say far-fetched!
Love your blog and the pictures.

If you can find a Facebook group for wildlife in your area, maybe you can post the photos on it. Someone may be able to figure it out.
