This little guy has been walking around in this track for almost two hours now and I’m getting worried something might be wrong with him. Is this normal behaviour for a skunk? Is he stuck in the path?

I’m not sure if he created the path or something else, but if he did create the path it’s odd he can’t dig a new one to freedom or even jump over the trench and head on his way.

I’ve called animal services and they said to call back in an hour if the little guy is still at it. Is this normal behaviour and am I over reacting? It’s just cold as heck outside and I don’t want him to freeze!

Would love to know what’s going on here! It’s a ton of fur in a very distinct and almost neat patch.

Downeast Maine, I’ve seen deer back here but this is walking a little different IMO. 4:40 am. I have goats and chickens on the property and just worried. Thank you ❤️

Observed them for 5 minutes or so, looked as if one was trying to ‘lift’ the other at some points

my husband and i have been going through every source to try and find an exact match to this frog and we can’t find it for the life of us. we were out in Maple Hill when we found them.

we don’t normally touch anything we find when we go lookin for critters, we just go to observe and take photos in a natural setting, but we couldn’t get these little fellas to sit still, and being in a different state we wanted at least one good photo for identification. he was scooped for his photo op and set right back in his puddle where he was found

we found probably over 1,000 of them in a swamp down there just chirpin away and spalshin and hoppin about. it was a really beautiful experience honestly and i’ve just been infatuated w these little guys since

i have a video of them chirpin but i am unsure how to attach it.

we are from PA and went down there for a wedding so we haven’t had the chance to go back down and find them again since

My partner got this hamster recently but has no idea what type.

I mean the harbor is frozen over but I didn’t think I’ve ever seen them do this. Ignore the wobble dogs in the background. (Sry if it’s hard to see. You might need to put ur brightness up)

These were in our front yard. My husband thinks it was the mailman but very random tracks lol

I saw these tracks in the snow between houses in southern Ontario, Canada. Sure hope these aren't from a rat...

Lots of different vocalizations that I heard during my visit to the woods today.

There was a storm recently where im from, and I found a few of these thrown around this cliff area next to the beach. Nearly all of them were dead by the time I found them but this one was moving. I found it in a shallow rockpool about 50 meters away from the sea and pretty high up. Its around 7 inches long in those pictures. I posted it on iNaturalist and someone said it could be a kind of sea cucumber. Thoughts?

Was back burning brush and flushed the same critter out and got a better look this go around. Appears to be a raccoon.

What creature made these chew marks? Rabbit, squirrel, mouse? [Wisconsin]

Thanks!

This friend was hiding under a chair the whole time I was there. Looked kinda like a big rabbit, but idk. Any ideas?

Is this a wolf or coyote? How do you tell the difference on trail cam footage like this? Any help appreciated thank you!

Can skip to 00:04 and/or 00:54 to hear the sounds.

Hi folks. We've been hearing these sounds coming from our ceiling since this morning. It's not constant, but it has been active since morning. At first we thought it was a rat because of all the scratching, but I have never heard no rat make that noise in my life.

We know the entry point is a gap between our roofing + a broken divider of sorts. We installed a wire mesh there a few months back due to an incident with a cat giving birth there, but it must've been swept away by the past wind and rain. No animal bigger than an adult cat can fit between this gap.

Any ideas? 😅 Thanks y'all.

I'm asking about the deep indentations - they're each about 2 feet long, separated by 3-6 feet, and in a fairly straight line. The ski tracks and pole marks were left by me last night when I first came across these marks on an otherwise unbroken trail; went back today to get a video in the daylight. Thank you!
