Can anyone identify this animal?

My buddy and I spotted this thing in Catonsville in someone's yard, only got a few pictures before it scurried off. Fox maybe?

That's a fox with a bad case of mange.

Looks like a coyote or fox with mange. Make that a fox. The tail tip gives it away.

It's a fox that needs to be dispatched.

Lmao, I thought the same thing.

....Looks like its a sick fox (a little taller than norm). We have quite a few in our neighborhood.

Had this same thing a few years back in my back yard. Called the county and they said not their problem unless its rabid. I told them im sure someone would handle it if they don't.... haven't seen it since about 2 weeks after....

I've never seen one since I've lived here, it was pretty close to patapsco so I'm assuming that's where he came from. That's pretty cool though thanks for the replies. Hopefully it doesn't make it a habbit of coming around

I live in Catonsville/Patapsco Woods and I have seen a coyote a few years ago. They will kill housecats, one of my neighbors saw theirs carried away by one. We also have at least one mangy fox in the neighborhood, but that's not it. Coyotes are about 2x the size of foxes.

#4 has it! Chupacabre for sure! What does the fox say?

A maryland mange assed libtard goverment sucker. Very common around here

 

[wilcam47]

mangy fox or small coyote...could be rabid if its out in daylight like that...not saying they don't come out in daylight but its best to stay away from it..

That dingo needs to eat a baby...

Oh myyyyyy...someone had to say it.

I saw another red bushy-tailed fox bow-hunting for deer earlier this AM...and a turkey...and a mature buck that was never closer than ~55yds to me.
