What on earth...Revisited!

Following on from my post the other day about the strange creature found in our neighbours yard, the general consensus from our animal loving friends is that it is likely a Possum, or maybe a Badger.

The only time I've seen a Possum is one in the back garden of my parents house and it looked fairly harmless but this picture shows another side to them:

Whatever it is, the teeth certainly suggest a carnivorous animal so I'm glad one of the dogs didn't discover it when it was still alive!

If you have any other ideas, let me know.

What on earth??

We have a house a couple of doors down from us that has been abandoned. Our next door neighbour decided he was going to cut the grass at the front so that it still looked respectable.

What he didn't bargain on was discovering this creature in the grass:




The pictures were taken after a heavy rain fall so some of the fur seems to have been washed off the body...but those are some nasty looking teeth!

So my question to you is...what the hell is/was it??
