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?

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?
