Cat food left out for cat was discovered by this fella. Just curious what type of skunk he is. I’ve never seen the bright white back.

Found in Manila, Philippines. Doesn’t look native to me.

Currently at the beginning of a very interesting house sitting experience… I rinsed out this water bowl and filled it with fresh water like 4 hours ago and came back and it’s got these things floating around in there. At first I thought it was bugs but it was literally dark in the room I put it in? Does anyone know what this is?

The cage in the background is the size of a pick up truck

I was only able to get about a 1 second video. My best guess was a weasel or a fisher.

sorry for poor quality

My wife and I watched a funny animal compilation and saw this animal sitting on a guy's shoulder, but had trouble figuring out what it was. After some Googling, she thinks it is a Binturong (also known as a Bearcat). But it looks way cuter and different colored than the other Biturongs we saw online.

The video link timestamped is here: https://youtu.be/LKif0vnZUlM?si=06ft0-tBwHLS74dZ&t=1791

Found this in my garden. Some slugs were feasting on it.
Looks like a fetus to me. I also have some holes in the soil - might be related.

Edit: It’s more or less the size of a thumb.

Trying to figure out if it's native or someone's pet. In Illinois

Bi-coloured Shrew is the closest thing that I've seen a picture of online. Yet I don't think that's it due to the shape of the head and the short tail of what I've found. Any ideas?

sorry the photo is cheeks

I believe it is a Northern leopard frog, just wanting confirmation as I am new to frog identification.

I saw this lizard today with what looked like a baby clinging to each side. It was super fast so the photo quality sucks. Does anyone know what kind it is? I have a short video but don’t know how to add it.

So I walked out onto my patio this morning to be greeted by this poor lil guy, I assumed a cat had gotten him, and I dug a hole to bury him, but then I turned him over and found these nasty yellow things on his other side, can I bury him still or is this some sort of parasite that could spread once buried?

Only seen during the winter. Neighbor says it’s a bobcat is he right?

i'm thinking cuban tree frog. invasive here but a lifer for me.

Frog found in my bathroom by my cat. I rescued the little guy from her and gave him some water in a mason jar.

Located in ohio, 3rd floor apartment.
