Spotting

Just read up on the hispid cotton rat - apparently they don't get that far west, so I'm probably wrong on that guess. Either way, cute little face. :)

The very short muzzle on this critter makes me think it might be a cotton hispid rat. They eat flowers and do not invade human habitations. Their tails are short for a rat - about half the length of their body. Did you have a chance to see the tail?

Ya the link is usually right under your name by where it says spotted by:.

Ryan, At the top of your spotting page there is a link that says "Edit this spotting". Click on that and you should be able to edit what you've already written. And welcome to Project Noah!

Cant seem to change what I typed before. He was about 6 inches. Brown. Probably a gopher of some sort. Lived in a vast system of Burroughs or tunnels. Caught these guys tunneling over by the marina.

I agree with Karen. A little more detail please :)

Very cute!
Can you add a bit more info in your description (an estimate of its size for instance) as this will help the community to try & ID this for you.
