I see moles, chipmunks, rabbits, starlings, crows, finches (among other birds), squirrels, frogs, and gardener snakes.
And if you consider bugs and arachnids wild animals then I have cicadas, locusts, crickets, grasshoppers, praying mantis, mosquitoes, gnats, beetles, butterflies, worms, many different types of spiders, and tons of ants.

I live in the city of Chicago and I have seen more wild animals than I care to.
Once I was walking to the train and there was I thought was a dog running my way but the run was really weird. Turned out to be a deer.
You see possums all the time including once when I opened up the back door to put some trash out and there was one on the porch (apartment mind you).
Not long ago I was standing at the bus stop and I saw a raccoon casually crossing the street.
And of course I've seen rats and mice.

I don't know what the hell it is, but it is an under ground something... bigger than a mole, smaller than a grounhog. I found the hole and put a rock over it. However it made another hole a long way away from the other one. I have no clue what it is. I live in the Shenandoah part of VA and we only have certain animals here. It's too small for a groundhog, which I once had. Too big for a mole. Can anyone help me. I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. I don't want to hurt or kill it. I just don't want lots of holes in my yard? Besides moles and groundhogs, what makes holes in yards. It is almost winter and I do not want BABIES in the spring. Yet I don't want to pour gasoline down there as a mean friend suggested. What on earth shall I do. Oh no that is a question and now I am in trouble. *uck, now I am in trouble. #hit!!!!!!!! And all I wanted to be is an animal lover. Dammit!
I know I am going to get in so much trouble but I've had a lot of Captain Morgains and this is an important question to me... Oh *uck....... I'll never get best answer, but I was very honest. Bless you all!

Birds -all kinds; especially 3 Blue Jays and 2 Woodpeckers; also wild ducks that fly in for corn.
Owl - he keeps us awake at night sometimes.
Squirrels - lots of them. At least a dozen. One huge nest in my maple tree out back and one smaller nest out front. (Had babies last year).
Raccoons - family of 5 living in the storm sewer
Opossum - 3 of them
Ground Hog - just saw him/her but not a regular visitor
Rabbits - just a few this year
Chipmonks - not as many this year as last year
Moles - just one I know of
Mice - I had one escape and is living in my Car parked out back.
Lastly - that kid across the street when he had those LOUD parties. Oh, that's WILD, but he's not really an animal. LOL.

birds
squirrels
chipmunks
opossums (possums)
raccoons
kestrels (sparrowhawks)
skunks
snakes~garter and other "safe" ones
However, this region is noted for timber rattlers (rattlesnakes). A little farther south where I grew up, there is a place in the woods called Rattlesnake Holler (Hollow) for very good reasons. I notice that a site about them refers to them being in Wisconsin. Maybe they need to revise that. We also run into the occasional copperhead if you're not careful while mushroom hunting.
A few streets away, I saw a very large red fox! He was absolutely beautiful and completely unafraid of my car or me. I was careful to keep the car between me and the fox. Yes, I was that close! He was standing at the top of a small rise, and I was parked at a gas station.
Coyotes have been spotted several places in town, too.
I live in a city in South-Central Ilinois.

Raccoons and rabbits are usually wandering my yard when I get home at night. I live 7 blocks from the river, I don't know why they come all this way, unless someone in the neighborhood leaves cat or dog food out at night. I enjoy watching them anyway.
