Post by: vaskidmark on April 28, 2013, 05:06:34 PM: It looks like a bear cub, only it's kind of late for one that small.

Send your picture to the nearest zoo with a request for them to come and pick it up.

stay safe.

Post by: AZRedhawk44 on April 28, 2013, 05:16:59 PM: My first thought was skunk, but lacking the stripe.

Some sort of badger/skunk/ferret/possum omnivorous mammal. A weasel variant.

Ears aren't big enough and face is too round.

Post by: JonnyB on April 29, 2013, 09:11:18 AM: First thing that came to my mind was "ferret".

A mink would probably be chewing fingers off the person holding it - they're nasty bastages!

Post by: MrsSmith on April 30, 2013, 07:35:46 AM: Fistful and I nailed it. But I suppose it could be a baby mink or a baby possum. Walked into an advertiser's business one afternoon and the woman sitting behind the desk had a towel in her lap. Thought at first it was a kitten, but nope, she held up this baby possum that looked an awful lot like what you've got there. Only time in their lives they're actually cute.

Wait a minute!

Seeing as how it's always Fistful's fault, how can he ever be right?

Only way I can see him picking the most correct answer is that he leaned over and copied from your paper.

stay safe.
