nefertari Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Driving along near Chatsworth at dusk tonight and a smallish animal crossed the road in front of me and I didn't know what it was. It looked like a badger but was smaller and not black and white, looked all brown from what I could see. Any idea what it might have been ?

nefertari Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 It didn't look very wolf like because I love wolves. More badger like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxman Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Stoat, weasel, wallaby? (Don't laugh, there used to be a population of Wallabies in the Peak District) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berberis Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Stoat, weasel, wallaby? (Don't laugh, there used to be a population of Wallabies in the Peak District) There is a population of Wallabies around Whipsnade wild animal park as they all escaped years ago. Actually there is a large number of wild meerkats too, but I doubt the OP was down in deepest darkest Bedfordshire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could still be a badger as they are sort of brown before they are adult. http://c.photoshelter.com/img-get/I0000t4p6iMVKC7U/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lectrolove Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 A pine marten? http://www.ionalister.com/pinemarten/pinemarten.htm They're not known to live around these parts, but the OH thinks he saw a (dead) one in Cumbria the other week, and they're not reckoned to live there either.
