Mystery animal

A family from the Yukon found this adorable mammal and they thought they had a puppy. They put out a distress call for a dog-wet-nurse and then found out it wasn't a puppy at all. (I don't know what difference that would make to the nursing dog.) Anyway, guesses included Wolverine, Otter, Martin...and more. Remember, these people are from the Yukon, so one of those guesses might be right. It was fun guessing.

What's your guess. No, don't go to THIS news article first. Play fair and guess. I guessed Badger. Because it looks a lot like a baby Badger I found once. Only my Badger was white, but, who knows? I didn't know what it was until I raised it up and got a full grown Badger. Shrugs. If it's a mammal, I can figure out how to raise it, even if I don't know what exactly it is. Anyway, what's your guess?

I think we're all stumped and the only way I could have a clue would be to .... read the article.

Did you guess right?

And did that hairless raccoon turn out to be a raccoon? I never saw a follow up in the news.

You brought up badger and that would be my guess. And that's because I have no idea of all the different kinds of animals that are in the yukon. Also because of the little touches of white.

I couldn't get the video but I did get the sound and I loved they way they gave us the answer. I wish I could see the extra pics of it. It is too cute!
