What the heck is that?
« on: October 20, 2010, 07:41:50 PM »
I pulled a couple of cams out of the woods last week and with the exception of a few does the most interesting thing was my ugly mug setting 'em up and taking them down.  Well I happen to be flipping through them this afternoon and I saw something I didn't notice before.  I assumed it was a dog, from where I have no idea, until I noticed that blunt tail.

Your thoughts?

I too noticed the rounded ears, and if you look the back legs are far to muscular to be that of a dog I think...

 :chuckle: Well, I thought for sure a reddish golden retriever like the dog I have. Then looked again and I don't know, but looks more like a cat now.
