    I don't know what this animal is I'm thinking coyote, but seems a little small.

    I would have to say a immature coyote, possibly a red fox.

    Looks like a variation of a Boxer Breed to me...stub tail and all.

    This might be the reason I have not had any deer pictures lately

    Would I be able to shoot that and tag it as a coyote?

    After blowing up the picture, I think his nose is too long for a boxer,

    I honestly think it's a immature red fox.

    Tough one to tell.

    Definetly a fox or coyote... I would lean more towards a young coyote. It has a long snout and its tail is hidden by a branch.... definetly not a boxer!

    It is definitely a red fox. The tail is hidden behind the fallen tree. We see the all the time.

    Looks like some kind of container or feeder to me. I don't know where you guys see a coyote, fox, or dog from a rectangular box.

    I'd lean towards a coyote pup, his tail is hidden behind the fallen branch and his snout is fairly long.

    **edit** After blowing the pic up, you can see the dark areas on the face... I'm changing my vote to Fox.
