What kind of animal is this?

[Reburn]

Update.

He likes mandarins. I didn’t have my phone but I handed him a few small wedges. (I had a leather glove on for safety lol)

I left him 2 mandarins and several cherry tomatoes. That’s all I could scrounge up.

My dad hasn’t been in his garage in about a week so we have no idea how long he’s been living in there. I’m only here prepping for the framers that will start framing the new house next week. (Dad lost his house in a fire last year and I’m GC’ing his new build). Dad will toss him some fruit as long as he stays but if he decides to leave then he will have to figure it out on his own.

My brother is the one that wants to keep it as a pet….. I don’t think that’s such a good idea.

The internets says they are worth 2500-3500...........

Somebody probably bought it as a pet and dumped it when it bit them.

Catch it and sell it is what I would do, at a price for a quick sale

And you are probably right about it biting someone and them dumping it

If that thing bites you and you have you go to urgent care, it’s gonna cost way more than $2500.

Plus all the questions you’ll have to answer…..

“You got bit by a Whaaaat??!!”

 

[wyogoat]

Have a live trap? Trap it and post it with a “rehoming fee.” I woulda tried to pet it too…

 

[pacoalcracker]

As I stated, best to take it to an animal shelter...they will know what's best for this harmless critter. It's not the critters fault some bozo adopted it and couldn't deal with it.

Trapped a raccoon a bit ago. Normally that trap would be the last thing they saw. Now they get taken somewhere and released.

Happens to all of us I guess.

Eh, the coon can have the four turkeys I could get tags for each year.

Reminds me of the first time someone glasses up a Kudamundi down here. It’s always a fun reaction.

I read that their livers, when dried and ground into powder, are the most potent female aphrodisiac in the world.

Like, three times that of diamonds.

They are nasty little creatures. Mostly fruit eaters, and occasional fingers. they can be destructive to your home at night. they have very long tongue. If he sticks it out, grab it, they also have very sharp teeth. If you know where Zap lives take it over to his house.

22lr and drop off at the taxidermist.

Do you mean diamonds that are not attached to a gold band?

 

[Mojave]

Gold band has some nullifying effect.

Damn thing scared the crap out of me. It’s in my dad’s garage. I’m clueless as to what it is.

It’s seems to be somewhat friendly.

Where are you located?

Between College Station and Huntsville.

Take him to C&J's BBQ & see if they'll throw it on the smoker. Let us know how it tastes

My brother saw the same thing…. I moat try to get a quick 2k to offset trying to go caribou hunting next year.

If it’s living in the garage where is it crapping? Dealbreaker.

The mice of the Upper Peninsula have a big woods deer camp they share with us. For a couple years, we had a resident weasel who helped us reclaim ownership. He would show up for the late night festivities, hang out and listen to our whiskey and beer tales, and keep the rodents at bay. It seems as though the grass was greener, or one of the neighboring properties treats him better as he's mia.
Let me know if he ends up in the classifieds

 

[Boarmaster]

20 years ago I probably would have.

I’m getting close to 40. I’m getting soft. lol

At 62 I would apply the SSS method and move on. If your not into that then I might call animal control or the game warden. Someone probably figured out it was more trouble than a house cat to keep around and dumped it off to be shed of it.

 

[ETtikka]

As mentioned earlier , probably a $3k pet
