    I have no idea what this is. Love to hear what you guys think. I'm thinking small bear on it's back however, just does not look like that.

    These are the only three pictures. Camera would have take more shots after 4 seconds...so, it did not stay long.

    Wait...after really looking at the pics....I'm thinking this could be a family of fishers. Looking at the brownish heads that appear to be different than body.

    Do you have a photo of a deer from that cam for a size reference? My initial thought is mink. Seem too small for fishers to me.

    Did not think of a mink. It's possible.
