Saw a Coyote cross 395 just south of publix last week. A new beaver pond in the state Forest. A few years back a 700lb turtle. And a Panther bout 10 years ago. All within Walton County. Truely an amazing place.:clap_1:

What about the story in the Sun a few weekends ago about the couple that stopped to "shoo" a mama bear and her two cubs away from the side of 98 between Hwy 283 and 395??:shock: I live in this area and didn't realize there were bears around here? Anyone have more info on this??

Forgot to mention the wild boars, too. Someone said there are wild boars in the forest here, also. I did also see some sort of cat about a month ago that was running like it was going to cross 98 and turned when it got to the shoulder...scared the heck out of me and my boys - and I suppose the other drivers around me as we all almost stopped.

Yes, we saw one of those our first month--but I had not known that they were here. It crossed the road in front of us, which gave us quite a start.
My husband kept seeing a river otter in the mornings, always in the same spot on 30A.
But then one day he saw a dead one in the same spot.

Whatever. If y'all say that a coyote is not as big as a German Shepherd, then maybe I saw . . . a WOLF! Perhaps the animal was not as large as I thought it was, but I'm almost positive it was a coyote.

A few years ago I saw RO crossing HWY 98 near the Spicy Noodle. I love otters!

There ARE eagles -- I've seen them around Lake Powell and Rosemary Beach.

This is what I am wondering, after seeing Barefootguy's video.
Or some sort of hybrid. But apparently Eastern coyotes can be bigger than the ones I saw in Colorado. Did he look like this? (I realize it's hard to tell the scale.)

Here's another. I've been prowling Photobucket for pictures of coyotes,it's startling how many people take photos of animals they've trapped or shot. Ick.

I have seen a few coyotes prowling around Hwy 98 before, they are there.

Oh yeah, they're here. But Camp Creek Kid's critter was perhaps larger than the typical coyote.

about 2 years ago i saw a pack hogs just north of 30A on 283. Before the Grayton Grand land clearing...there had to be ten of them...
