π©π© SCAT ID REQUEST π©π© Mysterious animal ate dog food and shit in the shed in Eastern Virginia
galleryFor the last few weeks or so some mysterious animal has been raiding our shed and eating dog food. It would open the shed door and then open the dog food bin like an asshole. We put a log in front of the shed to keep it out. Recently, it removed the log, tore the lid off the bin, and ate every last bit of dog food.
At first we were sure it was a raccoon, but now my father is convinced itβs a black bear after it ripped the lid off. The pictures in order are: scat, the bin itself for reference, recent scratch marks on the bin, the log in front of the shed, and the bin the day it was ransacked. The scat itself can be some random unrelated animal as the shed door was left open all night, but itβs our best clue (besides the scratch marks).

π©π© SCAT ID REQUEST π©π© Killed two chickens and left thisβ¦. (southern NH)
galleryLast night I realized something inside the barn killed two chickens and then left this right outside of it. The only thing that has ever come in the barn is a raccoon, but does this look like it could have come from a raccoon? It was soo much almost looks like something that could have come out of a large dog (but definitely was not).

π©π© SCAT ID REQUEST π©π© Possible Black Bear Poop (maybe deer)
gallerySo I forgot to include anything for scale, but these are large poops, like human-sized. I did a scat dichotymous key for Northern Michigan and came up with black bear and was a little alarmed. On the other hand, when I tore one apart with a stick I didn't see any identifiable vegetation, berries, fur, or really anything. Just poop all the way through. It was a really bad year for pretty much every apple tree on my property, but I bet there are still apples around which I heard someone say can make deer pellets stick together. This is also an area where deer bed down, hence the flattened tall grass it's sitting on. I feel like signs point to deer, but I'd like to pose it to the community for my own peace of mind.

π©π© SCAT ID REQUEST π©π© Help with Animal ID that got into house while away
I was away from home for about a week and came home to a bunch of insulation pulled out of the wall in corner of kitchen, dirt from a plant that's on the floor tossed around, and poop in my dining room.
No sign of what caused this or any sign it's still around. I am trying to figure out what it is and how to get rid of it if it's still around and how to prevent this from happening again. I get the occasional mouse when the weather changes but they usually go right to my boiler room in basement where it's warmest where I leave several traps year round, however this doesn't seem like a mouse given the side of the poop.
Any help with ID or other suggestions? Location is in heavily wooded area of New York. I setup camera everywhere today to try to ID.

π©π© SCAT ID REQUEST π©π© Something is making nests in our cars
Some kind of animal (assuming a rodent) is making our garage, and our cars, its home. It keeps dragging cracked corn, bird seed, moss, pheasant feathers (dad is a hunter), and random garbage items into our vehicles. We thought it was a mouse but found some scat today and itβs clearly not mouse poop. Any ideas what this could be?
We live in the northeast US.

Just cleared some brush/trees to build my house on later this year and found this when going out there today, I'm assuming it's deer? There was no way to get back here before bc the thick brush and other than the local stray cat I've never seen any animal out here before. It's a woody/hilly area.

I just moved into the suburbs west of Minneapolis, and I am trying to identify what friend (or maybe not?) left these in my backyard.

π©π© SCAT ID REQUEST π©π© What animal is living in my wall? (iowa)
galleryHey yall! there is some kind of animal living in the wall of my apartment and I have no idea what it could be. it appears it comes and goes through the hole under that plate in the first picture. the hole has always been there in the 3 years iβve lived here but the droppings are new within the past few months. maintenance came and plugged the hole but itβs obvious whatever it is is still coming and going somehow. the first 3 pics are from october and the last 3 were taken today. at first I thought it was birds (we have had a bird get into our utility closet via a heat vent before so it seemed likely there was a nest nearby) but I donβt see how a bird could fit in such a narrow gap. itβs a struggle to get my apartment management to do any kind of maintenance but iβm hoping knowing what it is might give me some leverage. unfortunately I donβt have the skill set to identify an animal from droppings alone but maybe someone here does?
