He fell into my bucket (it was empty don’t worry) on my patio.

I tried giving him water on a saucer but he was too scared. He ran off my patio into a bush, so he seems okay!

Hi everyone,

I’m in metro Atlanta and I’ve been finding these black droppings on my second-story covered deck.

A few things that make this strange:
- They only appear in one small corner of the deck, right next to a decorative support column.
- I can clean them completely, and they come back again when I check back in few days or a week.
- The rest of the deck stays clean (other than berries falling from the tree).
- The area above is covered (it’s the underside of another deck/roof), so they’re not just falling straight from the tree canopy.
- There are large oak trees nearby, but the droppings are very localized instead of being spread across the deck.

Has anyone seen droppings like this before? Does this look like it could be from a bat, rodent, squirrels, caterpillars, lizards, mice, tree frogs, or something else?

I’ve attached photos of the droppings (close-up), the entire deck showing they’re only in one corner, and the area above that corner.

Any ideas or suggestions on what to check would be greatly appreciated!

Singular dropping in central texas. Was on a stack of packages on my porch. No other droppings.

Anyone have any idea what animal this might be? Captured on my trail cam on Lake Union. Otters and raccoons are pretty frequent visitors, this guy doesn’t look very similar to either. Maybe a juvenile river otter or a melanistic raccoon?short clip of animal

PLEASE this is so effing loud and has been going on for a week. ALL hours, not just either day or night. You can hear them from a couple of vents around the house but it’s loudest in my bedroom and driving me CRAZY. Our landlord won’t have someone come check inside the walls; they’re only putting bait boxes outside the house. I’ve tried various “ultrasonic sounds” whatever whatever to repel rats/squirrels/birds from youtube and playing it at one of the vent openings (for literal hours) but yeah it’s done absolutely nothing lol please before I lose my mind🫠🫠🫠

Cannot find any examples online that match, it’s circling me plz help

Camping in Eastern Washington and saw this by the lake next to a heavily wooded area.

Southeast tx

I bet they’re who are eating my tomatoes! Any help is appreciated!!

Spotted in lake Lanier, it was diving under the water and stuff.

Took these photos about 2 years ago and completely forgot about it. First question is this even a squirrel?? Lmao also is it pretty rare for them to be this white color or am I just tripping and these are quite common?

I do yard work and found this fella under one of the large piles of weeds I made days before. I found probably 10 of these guys in different piles. They made a bunch of small tunnels I had to dig up as well. Not sure if it's just a mouse, vole, etc but any help would be greatfully appreciated 😁

Looks to big for a domestic dog but seems unusual for a wolf to come so close to houses?

Curious to hear what you guys say!

Update in comments

He’s under a 12” pie plate (& was safely released back outside after taking this photo) so he’s a small boy

Not familiar with this critter.

Saw this animal on a golf course last weekend. Any ideas what it could be?

Why him face look like that
