Plain text indicates the location (see corresponding red arrow) of the animal(s) in image; bold text indicates the basis of the identification of the animal(s).
1 – On left margin of image, facing left. [Single raccoon: this partial image shows only the ringed tail diagnostic of the raccoon.]
2 – Directly behind pile, facing right. [Single raccoon: this view, somewhat blurred and obscured by pile material, shows an individual with an arched back bearing grizzled fur and a thick tail (rings not very discernible), both of which are characteristic of the raccoon.]
3 – On left margin of image, facing right. [Single raccoon: this partial view is further masked by a tree trunk. It shows a grizzled, arched back with downward pointing head and short legs, all indicative of the raccoon.]
4 – Behind pile to right, facing camera. [Single raccoon: a challenging view due to poor illumination. Face of raccoon shows diagnostic mask and light ear fronts. Arched, grizzled back and thick tail disappears into shadow.]
5 – On front margin of image, facing away from camera. [Single raccoon: this partial image shows the arched, grizzled back and lighter ears (head is down) that are characteristic of a raccoon. Immediate surrounding images show much clearer views of a raccoon.]
6 – In background, approaching pile. [Single raccoon: this frontal view shows dark mask around eyes and arched back with grizzled appearance that are characteristic of the raccoon.]
