That’s what I originally thought too… but I don’t think the tail is tucked in. So it can’t be a raccoon. Which led me to posting this. Maybe it’s a groundhog?
I agree with raccoon. I think its weight and the angle of the camera make the tail look really short but the face and the way it moves look raccoon-ish. Lots of raccoons with tail injuries out there, too.
I think it’s a groundhog/woodchuck as well. Another person said some badgers may not have a stripe on their head but I feel like that’s pretty rare for an American badger. I think groundhog is more likely.
Hard to tell. Could be a raccoon, beaver, muskrat, also saw badger as a reply, that's possible as well. What part of the state are you in? (I'm in MN as well)
Badger for sure. They look like an ottoman when they walk around. Forewarned never met a badger that didn’t want to fight to the death over absolutely nothing, careful.
Looks like a fat Racoons to me, wolverines and animals in the badger family are more slender and tend to be more cautious and calculated than trash pandas.
Looks like a fat racoon to me Tail is tucked down a little

Based on body shape and the short tail, I think it’s a badger.
I agree.
Does America have badgers ?
I second this
I second the possibility of it being a badger. They have wide, flat shaped bodies, and not all head markings are the same. Similar movements as
Yep. It’s a badger.
The college team macots are Badgers.

Looks like a super fat racoon! Dang! Fat trash panda!
I agree that’s a fat boi
Looks like a raccoon waddle to me.

Obese raccoon.
That’s a very very fat North American raccoon, I’ve had plenty on my trail cams and trapped plenty to know

Walks like a raccoon. I had one in my yard with no tail.

Tank of a raccoon

WOLVERINE

Its not a raccoon. It doesn't move like one. I raised them as a kid.
Honey Badger don’t give a…….
Raccoon or badger.
I think it’s a dog
Raccoon is my guess. Head down sniffing and would look more elongated that way
I thought it was a fawn at first
fat possum?
Molé molé molé molé
Wolverine
Tis a trash panda
I heard Minnesota and wanted it to be a wolverine so badly. Then this chill little badger showed up and I’m good with that as well.
100% sure that is le racoon
Woodchuck

We don't need no stinkin' badgers!
A very weird looking dog.
Woodchuck possibly
Trash panda, a fat one
Lived in MN my whole life and never heard of badgers here although it certainly looks like one, my bet’s on all-black raccoon
Are you near water? Muskrat
Someones fat little lap dog. You can see it's old too.
Definitely a ROUS.
Slush puppy
Badger for sure. They look like an ottoman when they walk around. Forewarned never met a badger that didn’t want to fight to the death over absolutely nothing, careful.
Thats definitely a mustelid. Likely an american badger. Wolverines are a bit shaggier and lean.

Badger but not honey badger :(
Just looks like a fat coon, maybe a badger
