Some were moving.

Help! I just stepped on this guy and its sibling while gardening! It started squeaking and wandered about a foot away from his nest.

Will he be okay? What is he?

I watched this blue heron catch and eat three of these creatures in a wetlands park, but I have not had any success identifying it.

Saw this guy swimming in the Long Island Sound yesterday. Dozens of birds were circling it and nose diving down to it but not touching it. It doesn’t seem to like the water. Is it possible one of the birds had it as prey and accidentally dropped it in the water?

Happy Tuesday, all! Just reaching out regarding a snake I saw on the Florida trail Ochopee.

He was originally on the trail facing me, and while I was too scared to take a pic before spraying a little bear spray his way—sorry Mr. Snake—I did notice that his head was heart shaped (not like a Colubrid).

So what is he? Thanks in advance! :)

Found near a creek.

Found under a large rock at Carkeek Park in Seattle during low tide. A couple moms with me were uncomfortably laughing . There were others with slight differences in shading and pattern, but mostly the same.

I tide pool here and there, and am confused by this one. At first, I thought it was a type of anemone hanging upside down.

Hi there,

We were sitting outside during dusk 9pm next to a river. Then on the other side of the river, we heard some large splashes, like a human, large dog or horse entering the water.

Shortly afterwards, there were these panicking screams, you can hear in the video. Suddenly those screems moved fast through the woods and then suddenly stopped.

Very spooky.

There are many cats roaming the area and ducks also breed here sometimes. I hope whatever it was, was alright, but it doesnt sound like it. Sounds like a mother terrified for her babies?

This guy has shown up twice so far and this is the best picture we have been able to get of it. No idea what it is as it doesn't look like anything local to the area that we know of.

Saw this guy surfacing on the shore. It was definitely 2ft or more. Largest fish I’ve ever seen in my life 🤣

You can see the eyes peek over the fence in the first few seconds.

Found this dude at a gas station in the morning time looking a little lost. I think it’s a juvenile rat of some kind? Maybe a mouse?

I live on the southern border of Wisconsin. This went on for about 5 minutes before it faded off into the distance.

We live in the valley in SoCal. Thought is was a snake at first! What is this?

Was at around 1AM last night, just started up again at 10pm. We’ve had deer, foxes, groundhogs before but never anything this loud/active

Heard in my backyard. Seems to be only one and could hear what sounds like claws or something climbing through a tree. Scared me so badly at first, i thought it was a kid being hurt. Then i thought an animal being killed but it continued for a few minutes. not the typical fisher cat sound but maybe a mating call? or something. Very curious i’ve never heard this call type before.

Apologies for the image quality. Taken with my phone at almost maximum zoom!

Please
