Armidillo,,,,Not in New York,,,,we get alitlle tooo much SNOW for them.I was thinking maybe a skunk,,not sure.What had me guessing was a friend a work who had mentioned finding these kind of dropings in his garage.I have seen them once or twice in my yard,,and many times in the woods.
I think I' ll tell him he has an armidillo hidding in his garage.He' ll like that[]

RE: What left this behind ?
I have a large toad that frequents my front porch that leaves me little presents like that. His are generaly just under 2" tho. Real black and the fresh ones are greesy looking with lots of bug parts. He only drops one per squat tho.[X(]
