Help me identify what this is..... please.  I know its a tail but the only thing I can think of is a skunk. 

This trail cam had elk, deer, cougar and horseback riders.

How far off the ground is this camera?  Skunk tails aren't very tall, but I agree that sound possible.  Hair fans up so doubtful it could be much else.  But dang that would be a low placed camera!

Maybe squirrel climbing the tree

It was only bout a foot off the ground. Maybe two feet at most. It is on the same cam that had my pics of the cougar. The ground dropped off bout 2 1/2 feet 6 ft from where cam was.
