What is this?
I went to retrieve my trail cam pics today ( Saturday-6/13/09) and came across this picture of this certain critter. I myself think it's a groundhog. After a couple of my hunting buddies saw the picture they had different oppinions. One friend think's it a beaver, one friend thinks it's a fisher and yet another friend seems to think it's a very large musk rat.
What do you guys think it is? http://www.flickr.com/photos/92426379@N00/3621849633/ |

RE: What is this?
def not a muskrat as muskrats have thin tail like a rat or possum-
Tail does not look quite wide enough for a beaver, and the tail on that thing has hair I don't think it looks like a fisher at all (which looks more like a mink or marten). Doesn't look a groundhog either- face looks wrong- I'm stumped. dang thing looks like a wombat to me, but it would have to be someones pet that escaped- I think they are native to OZ? |

Apologies
My apologies, I didn't think about the fact that groundhogs might be uncommon in some parts of the country.

Body of a groundhog, and I see probably 100 a week or so....but Ill be danged if I ever seen a blonde one. Most of the ones around here are dark rusty brown colored.
