Pic's a bit blurry, but it looks like it could be a young Malayan pit viper. Refrain from fucking with them if possible.

I live in Wisconsin and deer over population is a real issue.

As long as the hunter legally hunts and only hunts during hunting season I don't think they're bad. Plus venison is fucking delicious.

It's less cruel than a slaughter house, at least the deer have a chance

Congrats OP. You just described almost every first world hunter.
There's shitty hunters just as there are shitty pet owners or parents.

At least you can eat deer.

>>2461997
Deer are pests here.
Faggots killed all the wolves, so now there's nothing to keep the deer in check.
Hunters pretty much have to murdle them.

I think that's a caterpillar

Caterpillar jammer, he'll fuck with your picture quality so watch out.

hey OP i replied to this over in the reptile general.

yep. stomp on it. its a fucking mouse

>>2461879
Grab the tail and yank hard. This will break the spine and kill it. Don't be a bitch about it; pull HARD or you will prolong its suffering.

>>2461879
Just try endless food and put it somewhere warm.

Shameless self bump

You haven't provided much information at all, sorry. How old are the kittens, is an important one - taking one that's too young could kill it since they need their mothers milk.

And there's also a lot of effort that goes into adopting a stray cat, for all you know they could be riddled with parasites and diseases that'd require treatment before you take them in, otherwise your place could get infested with fleas or worse.

Mother cats in my experience aren't actually that protective of their babies as dogs and some other animals. If you can get them, just grabbing a kitten and getting it inside should be enough, I don't expect you'd be attacked at all unless you actively backed them all into a corner.

>>2461883
Sorry about that. I think they're around week old at most since I only started hearing the meows a week ago plus they can't even open their eyes from what I've seen. Mother cat ran away when I got near her kittens so I was surprised because they usually don't let a person near their kittens.

>riddled with parasites and diseases
Can newly born ones have those too?

Have an extra toe to your bean

Why are dog toe beans so rough and cat toe beans so soft?

>>2461809
And no I won't be keeping it as in like a pet. I mean should I watch over the poor fellow til it recovers and set it free or just leave it somewhere now?

what is it? a shrew?

>>2461827
Did a bit of research. Apparently it was a kangaroo rat, I think. Had a long ass tail with fur at the end. I live in Sourthern Cali so those are native here.

The poor thing just passed. I gave it space and kept it as comfortable as possible. Noticed it had blood on its nose that wasn't there when I initially found it, and when I turned its head over it looked as if the jaw was caved in or broken or something. It didn't look right. I buried it somewhere. The cat can have it now, I guess.

I think I was way in over my head. Had it been the daytime, I would've driven it down to my local wildlife rehabilitation center. But it was like 1am when I found it.

No, but it is the worst shark I have ever seen.

Yeah, it's called child's oc. Put it back on the fridge.

>>2461793
It's not a shark. No sharks have 3 gils. Minimum is 5.
Also this shit is ugly as sin and looks like it was drawn with crayons by a 4 year old autistic child with no thumbs.

>>2461780
Great to watch them hatch and grow before dumping them in my aquarium as fish snacks.

I also thought it was weird that they are only sold in toy shops. I asked at a pet shop once why they don't stock them and the girl said "because they aren't real animals".

They are fun to raise though

I think they're waiting it out so the hornets leave during winter. Cheaper than getting someone out here to do it.

With that said, how do I get rid of a hornet's nest that's flattened between a brick wall and an electrical box? Specialized spray or some sort of homemade stuff should work right? At night when they're dormant of course...

fire should work

Looks more like mud wasp nests. They hunt for spiders and stun them with venom, and carry them back to the nest as living food for their larvae. The wasps are usually big and black, but mostly harmless unless you try to fuck with it.
