Is this venomous [Kentucky]July, found in Garage

No rattlers from what I could see, just moved to new property (don’t judge messy garage lol) curious if harmful to us and dogs or just vegetables or both, or neither and just a friendly dangle noodle.

[Grand Teton/Teton Range]

I believe this is a beautiful specimen of a Cinnamon Black Bear, I'm not seeing the hump and no pie-shaped face indicative of a grizzly.

Whatcha think?

What kind of hawk is this? [South Dakota]

Im not sure if this is a chicken hawk or a female redtail. These hawks have been around my shop for a while now and ive always been a hawk lover but ive never seen multiples like this in the same area. Today theyve been making a ton of noise unlike ive seen from them before. Theyve also been spending a lot more time lower to the ground recently. Is this a family? I think they have a nest on the cell tower right behind our building. Ill try to include the video of them on the tower together in the comments.

Who is this lil’ guy? [Denmark]

This is a few years old by now - I found him crawling around in the grass yappin’ his lil’ heart out. I assumed he was likely dehydrated or sick, so I picked him up (NOT WITH MY HANDS) and placed him in a safer spot.

They live inside our roof, but they are usually pretty good at not getting in trouble. This is the only guy I’ve seen out of place in ~10 years, the other one decided to sleep in our fireplace (which was thankfully off because it was summer)

We’ve got 17 species in Denmark, but I can’t for the life of me ID him with certainty 😅

His face (as you can see) is sort of dog-like? I didn’t get a picture of it, because I didn’t want to stress the poor guy out.

Ground squirrel? Prairie dog? Gopher? [Montana, US]

Hello! I was wondering what type of rodent this was at my bird feeder. They are small (dove for comparison) and burrow tunnels all around here. I'm thinking a richardsons ground squirrel but not totally sure!

In Montana, North America.

Too tall for a young fox? [Latvia]

Sibling saw this in Latvia. She said it appeared above knee height for a 1,70m person. We thought it might be a young fox but the tail is super slim and it’s way too tall for that. Any help for ID?

Edit: Appears to be a young Red Fox that’s most likely shedding or a lil mangey. Thank you all!

I saw this at my course that I work at. [Central New Jersey]

I thought maybe it was a coyote but it kind of looks like a wolf but we don’t really have wolves here in Jersey. Is this maybe someone dog. We do frequently have coyotes on the course but they typically are in packs and not this big. Thanks for any help or info. God bless!
