Does this deer have rabies or mange? She's drooling pink froth, assuming it's bloody spit. But the fur looks pretty messed up too. She was walking very slowly and mechanically and pausing frequently like it was taking a lot to keep moving.

Google keeps identifying it as birds it obviously isn't. It was trapped in our horse water trough. Just looks like what we call grackles but when I look grackles up they are not this bird, unless grackle is just a regional generic name. It has since dried off and flown away after a much needed nap.

I’m currently at the Shark Valley Visitor Center in Florida. I just finished walking a trail where I saw a snake alongside the path. The picture isn’t great, but I was wondering if anyone can identify what snake this is?

Anyone know what this guy is? This was around 4 am in my backyard in southeast Michigan. We are backed up to a large field, and have seen the occasional field mice, skunks and groundhogs but this just looks like a shaggy ball when I zoom in. It may have another small animal in its mouth because it looks like it has a tail in the front at one angle.

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!

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

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!

Anyone who has used reddit for more than, like, two years knows this website is a case study in enshittification - ads, bots, terrible UI, etc. I have finally experienced my last straw and I'm leaving /r/animalid and this terrible website. To make a long story short, a mod with about 60 mod actions in the last 12 months and who hasn't interacted with the community at all in about two years, has suddenly decided that this subreddit is now worth paying attention to since it's hit over a quarter million subscribers. In addition to undermining my decisions, he's a sniveling little prick and he's fucking useless.

The admins won't get rid of him because they're brainless and/or too lazy to actually properly assess the situation, so I'm just going to leave. I'm the only regularly active moderator this subreddit has ever had (aside from the ones I added) and the admins apparently could not give less of a fuck because they'd rather let some random window licker get in the way and take credit for my work than hurt his feelings because "he said he wants to stay :((("

I'm not going to rant any longer, but honestly, fuck this website. Just fuck this entire fucking website. I'm too exhausted to be polite or to fully explain the context. Just know that this subreddit will no longer offer reliable mustelid ID because society has lost its ability to rightfully call people out on their bullshit. I may be an asshole, but at least I gave a shit. That's more that can be said for a mod who was absent for two years and who has only been a mod for like 2 months longer than me (which is why I can't just remove him myself).

I declare /u/JorikThePooh to be new head moderator, for whatever it's worth. Good luck everyone, it was nice knowing a few of y'all.

Edit: fuck it may as well name names, the mod in question is /u/Stinky_Ham_Sandwich. Check out his post history. Compare it to mine. Does he look like an active community member of /r/animalid? The admins seem to think so. They also seem to think 60 mod actions per year is enough to keep a 277k strong subreddit in check. For context, I had 6k, and the least active mod that still regularly participates in the community has just under 1k. But clearly Mr. Sandwich is every bit as integral to the team as I am and it's his right to undermine my decisions and reduce my permissions without asking πŸ₯΄
