This is still a great thread. I Love it! ALL of the critters in your area are well fed! Thank you for taking the time to post. Sorry your son lost his bunny.

Wood, I have a female bengal cat. She's close enough to her original wild roots that she is the first generation to be considered a bengal when one is working strictly with hybrid stock. She marks territory using both traditional "tail wiggling" method seen in cats and leg hiking similar to that seen in the canid family. The second picture also has the same appearance of a cat caught in mid stride. Given that information and presuming that it is a mid-stride image, this places the creature into the feline genre. Taking head size in relation to body build and tail length, there is the potential that instead of a juvie cougar, one may be dealing with a hybrid bob / domestic cat. Explains the head size, the body type, and tail. It would also fit within the scale parameters.

Now.... if you look at the last image, there is evidence that it may indeed be a canid or a relative of some sort. Probably male at that. Check the area along the belly right in front of the leg. Considering the body build and the behavior displayed (appears to be in hunting mode with a lowering to the ground and slinking, much like a feline), this would make the creature a grey fox or coyote. Being more familiar with coyote than fox, I'd put money on the coyote here.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.... it's too cute to be possum, not rolypoly enough for coon, shading is off for red fox, and I do not see Bert & Ernie in the picture to prove Big Bird. Odds on favorite is coyote or grey fox but knowing the behaviors of felines, I'll reserve a 25% chance for hybrid bob and a 5% for a juvie feline (even tho size is really off unless it was the runt of the litter).

Florida Panther...IMHO.

the first pic on post 280 is a coon. weird shaped, but it is a coon

 

[dinahmoe]

yes,the first pic on 280 is a coon.the new predator picture is the raptor.

A giant bird, INDEED!

I'm questioning whether I get out enough. I'm thinking "probably not."

Is it normal to be this enthralled with a game cam??

After the last series of photos I wondered what else you could possibly capture on that thing.... And not only did you get a picture of Big Giant Bird, but you got a picture of him eating your bait. I love this!

Thanks for taking the time out of your day to indulge us and plant measuring sticks and traps and everything else you've done.
You Rock, Dinahmoe!

It looks like a raptor and it appears to have black and white barring on the tail. I am thinking Broad-winged Hawk but my raptor id is not very good.

Sorry to hear about your pet bunny. How very sad. The only guppy my daughter named, Goldie just died and I was volunteering and didn't have time to check the new tank and she died. So my fault. Its pretty suck-y.
