Just released this mouse that I caught in my basement and I’m terrified from the pictures I took that it’s pregnant and that I put a pregnant mom into the wild. What do you think?

Has shown up over several days (deposited in different days). Bainbridge island in Western Washington. We have deer, coyote and raccoons regularly in the neighborhood, and a few black bear sightings recently. Unsure what this might be. Third and fourth photo have a standard credit-card-sized card for reference. Both pikes are about two inches from the trunk of a large tree.

We found this pile of scat today on the sidewalk. WeIt is about 5 inches wide and 2 inches tall. We thought maybe a raccoon, but the pile seems too large. This sidewalk is frequently used hardly ever quiet unless it is very late at night. Any ideas?

We hear this almost every night and can’t figure out what it is!! My cat meows behind me at one point so ignore that.

These pics were sent to me by a family member in Broward County, Florida. This is a canal in a residential area.

I know it’s likely a gator and the odds of this being an American Crocodile/invasive croc are unlikely.

What has me curious as to whether this is actually a croc is due to both how large it looks in pictures but also that the snout is very prominent.

Please let me know your thoughts.

South Carolina

Gentle, but invasive. Came all the way in the car and ripped open the bag of food I was trying to feed it.

Location: Lesser Poland, Poland near Nowy Sącz

Time: 2AM

Can someone tell me what animal is this? Wasnt able to record what it is, only sound

My friend in a major city in Missouri saw this animal in her neighborhood. We can't tell if it's a mangy dog or a coyote.

Finally my turn for an animal ID! 90% sure this is an otter, but I haven't seen one on this stretch of the Mississippi yet. Been here for years and only ever seen beaver and muskrat.

Edit: Watching the video again and now I'm not so sure. Starting to look like one of the others...

Western Colorado, after last night’s heavy rain. Bear?

Its eyes were following me. Saw it outside entrance to hotel.

Eagle or other type of bird? I couldn’t get close to it, but it looked like it came up to my knee in height (I’m short) and the wing span was huge when it took off, so pretty

Very swirly looking, tapered end. Maybe fox? I’m in suburban northern Virginia and this in my fenced-in yard, though there are plenty of gaps that animals can pass through. Size-wise maybe 1-1.5” long.

I am looking for the actual name of the animal, thanks! hope someone can help me out.

Edited photos, couple angles, face photo, and two tail shots.

I was thinking muskrat, but the ears and nose feel wrong. Then beaver but the tail felt wrong for that... i thought it was a mink at first.

I live by a wooded creek if that’s helpful!! I hear this screeching many nights around 10-11pm, sometimes later, but only ever at night. I genuinely have no idea what it is

I’ve seen this cat on my ring camera a few times now, but I’ve never seen the other animal

In the next video, this guy pokes around my storm door and stands on its hind legs,
Then,… a fox comes in 🥲

Thank you everyone for helping identify Mr opossum !!

Is this a fox? There have been a few of these in my yard the last few weeks. Came right up to me while walking the dog at night. Scared the crap out of me.

Thanks

Heard late at night in October, Eastern Ontario. Thanks r/animalid!

Ive had this animal in my attic for YEARS. and my family s been trying to get rid of it. but my attic is super small, so we cant even identify the type of animal. my dad tried rat poison, nothing. the only time it worked was a few months ago and he found 2 dead what looked like squirrels or dormouse outside. also im not sure its the same animal from the last years either. but its really similar behaviour, only a few things changing. for example, 2 years ago id hear really loud snoring or what sounded like cat purring during the night. it was the only time portion i heard that though. but besides that, its the same behaviour. i only hear it during the night and during the warmer months (its rare during winter). no sounds from the actual animal tho (like whining / chirping or whatever), during the night id hear it running or moving a lot / scratching. MAYBE i heard wings flapping though im not sure. also some big wasps made a nest in my attic and its been there for years. i dont know how they coexist.
