[pickrad]

Whatever it is - I want one - he did a fine job of cutting and stacking that wood.

In the close up photo the face looks very pig-like as do the ears.

Well I don't know what planet you all are from but this is a pig, the thing likely jumped from the pile of logs, that triggered the camera and thats the only reason his back is humped up. It has tusks!!!! as far as fur trapper goes you obviously don't trap beaver. A beavers legs barley lift thier body off the ground, a Nutria looks more like a beaver than that thing. Its a PIG look at the color variation on the shoulder IT has a snout! the shape of its jaw along with the floppy ears Its little short tail. I think all of you are just puttin me on right LOL

Looks like a Capybara- but what would it be doing in Wisconsin?

KBrown seems to be correct for the most part. After looking at it more closely, it has to be a pig. Looks like there is a bit of a "face-off" going on with some animal in the upper left and the "pig".

I think its a Boar, Russian maybe. I just saw some Monsters at Deyoung's zoo in MI last weekend and they looked identical.

Come on really? There is no question it is a hog. The snout, the flopped over ear, the thick straight hair, I even think you can almost make out a tusk.
