This is the only image I have of this animal. It’s about 30 yards from a swampy area and about 100 yards from the river. You can see it leaving the frame on the left.

It could be but the tail would be lacking markings.

Deer tail down. No white rump showing because of the bright flash on the ground washing out contrast. Just a guess.

^this. The rings are light but upon closer examination they are there.

Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Looks like a coon to me, the rings on the tail are hard to distinguish because it's moving

I think its an aardvark actually entering the frame from the left. Oh, I also see an African lion's eyes peering at it from behind, and an alligator's eye shining in the pond on the right.

That top photo needs to be run through a few filters, because I don't even see an animal in that sjot

I bet it is, look how long the tail is Jayme...


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

After seeing the other pics, I'm even more convinced that it's a coon and that you should invest in a better camera.

No doubt I need a better camera but it’s not high on my priority list at the moment. It could very well be a raccoon.
