White tail, eastern turkey, coyotes, a blue heron, red-tail hawks + the usual compliment of coons, skunks, squirrels, birds, etc.
And about 2 dozen chickens, 2 dogs and a barn cat. |

No animals. No water either. Or trees. Or anything else that the government wants to control, they were lost in a tragic nuclear weapon testing program accident 50 years ago and haven't been back since - so keep your distance Mr EPA/FDA/City Forester/Animal Control or whatever, you don't want to get radiation poisoning while you look for things to implant with chips.

These show up occasionally along with birds and cats. <a href="http://s1205.photobucket.com/user/DamascusKnifemaker/media/IMG_3731c_zps23a79545.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb435/DamascusKnifemaker/IMG_3731c_zps23a79545.jpg</a> View Quote Dude, fucking tarantulas were EVERYWHERE this year. We found at least six or seven over the summer in the back yard. One chased our little chihuaha, which the S/O (who has crippling arachnophobia) didn't find nearly as funny as I did. |

From my front porch I've seen black bear, deer, coyote, wild pigs, squirrels, possums, racoons, owls, woodpeckers, and all kinds of small birds I can't name.
|

I've seen armadillos, opossums, foxes, squirrels, owls, hawks, eagles, bobcats, lots of birds (from herons to downy woodpeckers), rabbits, raccoons, snakes, alligators, several types of turtles. The turtles lay eggs in the back of the property and the raccoons and foxes eat the eggs

I have a Chihuahua.
But he is thought to be half chupacabra. |
|
Quail, rabbits, an occasional coyote, a GSD, and LOTS of rattlesnakes.
|

Common animals. Rabbit, squirrel, dove, deer, possum, raccoon, grackles, woodpeckers, Cardinals, ordinals ..
Now for the uncommon..Green Heron . Yeah, seen a few of those. Odd bird. We have horses, chickens, a rabbit and dogs. Lots of dags. But the wife doesn't like them barking at night so we have issues with raccoons killing the chickens. I've killed two so far. Trapping is DIFFICULT as they won't take any bait. Not even cat food, they want LIVE bait. |
|
There are plenty of animals here like the OP has and a few more. Mountain lions, badgers, and the occasional lost elk and not so lost wolves looking for a bovine meal.

Inside the house? Just the one dog.
Outside = Deer, fox, rabbit, raccoon, ARFCOM cat (i.e., opossom), skunks, squirrel, eagles & other birds of prey. I have seen coyote in the woods about three miles from here, but I don't think they come near where I am. Also, there is a guy through the woods behind me who raises turkeys. A ways further out I saw a bobcat one night, and there have been reports from farmers of "very large tan colored cats" which are claimed to be Puma concolor, but of course for various political (read, "budgetary") reasons the DNR denies this. |

The central flyway is full of pelicans. A couple years ago duck hunting we were pass shooting in shoulder high grass. Had a flock of a couple hundred fly over right above the grass. Very, very cool thing to see them in flight close enough to grab. Coolest animal we have found lately is a Tiger Salamander. Busted a flock of Hungarian Partridge a couple weeks ago. Mice, gophers, moles, skunks, coons, possum, muskrat, feral cat, house cat, coyotes, fox, deer, Canada geese, mallards, wood ducks. Never know what you'll see. We used to have great horned owls, I think, nest across the road. Not in awhile though. |
