Badger and they are found in Ohio so I would have to assume you may have them there in your neck of the woods.

It's your Mother In Law, checking up on you. LoL

Mother in laws are shape shifters, they can take the form of any Evil Creature.

Then eat you alive.

It looks just a tad a bit higher off the ground than groundhogs normally are.

Badgers have been listed as furbearers that can be trapped in parts of Illinois for years, but i have never seen or heard of one in the southern part of the state.
