Driving around the ranch and saw this guy run into a hole in a pile of dirt. Drive up to him and he is poking his head in and out. He didn't know what to do. He eventually went down into his den for good.

Cool find, but be careful. I know from experience that they can be very agressive.

If you can lure him out of his den, they really like to be scratched on their bellies.

Very cool pic. I am jealous of some of you guys that have property like that to see lots of animals. All I have are Deer and squirrels.
