    Felis silvestris catus ....... I would guess.

    Hare I'd say, don't see any big tail.

    Looks like a dog to me. Too striding for a fox but I'm on a small screen

    Hare, think thats a shadow not a tail, no?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 187 ✭✭Ulmus


    Cat. Gait is too bounding for a fox. Fox would more likely run for cover immediately into high grass rather than open field.

    It's definitely not a Hare - it has a long, bushy tail. It looks like a dog in its first couple of strides, but when it leaps into the long grass it looks foxlike. My money's on a fox.

    Fox for me.....

    That's no pinemarten. The pinemarten has an ambling gait.
    That's a stoat or a weasel, a weasel I think because his tail seems to have a single colour.

    One is weaselly detected while the other is stoatally different..

    Disagree re the gait. See

    But the colour and head shape?

    Could be a pine marten on the film, not the football one.
