Animal Kingdom’s got nothing on us

by Jason | October 9, 2009

My esteemed colleague has written recently about an on campus frog migration. And we all contend daily with the roving packs of squirrels. But today I discovered signs of something else (I think) on our beautiful – and woodland creature-friendly – campus.

Budding naturalists help me out. What was this creature walking the steps of the Schmidt building?

Raccoon, I would guess, from the long fingers. Or maybe Little LU after boot camp.

I’m a country girl….that’s definitely raccoon tracks!

Jen, that’s good news (and good looking out). Thank goodness. I was starting to think the mythical Skunk Ape had ventured inland from the Everglades and was wandering campus on his tiny clawed feet!

‘Course, could be Little LU too. He never does take those boots off. Could be he’s in dire need of a manicure!
