Default What the heck is it?

My first inclination is that this is a bear. To me, the ears are not as rounded as they should be for it to be a bear. I don't have any video editing software to enhance what I've got. Any ideas?

Ears don't look pointy enough for a bob cat. Camera looks really close so it could be smaller that it apperas. Wife says it is a racoon. Bahhh baahhhhh

I would have to say a cat of some kind. Bobcat possibly.

All I can make out is something that appears to be scratching itself with it's back paw. Too hard for me to tell if it's cat, canine or coon. I definately don't think it's a bear though.

I disagree, it looks like a veryyoung bear to me. (big floppy ears) Also the hair really looks like bear hair. Kind of coarse and prickly looking.

I dont think the ears are as pointy as they seem there, they are just being viewed from a side angle.

My speakers are broken; Is there any sound to the video?
If there is, did it make any noises that would help identify it?
