hard to tell from that view,  but guessing a marmot?

A badger????
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders.

Another vote for badger.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Almost seems a little tall for a badger, but it sure does have the right body shape and coloration for a badger for sure.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Okay, it's a badger. Now calm down everybody!

The other day I walked up to my pickup after a hike and noticed something brown thrashing around next to a bush about ten feet away. All of a sudden, a badger pops up with a squirrel in it's mouth. It looked at me and took off running straight away from me. I only managed to get a few pics from behind. It looks like he dug the squirrel out of the ground.
