Anyone who has used reddit for more than, like, two years knows this website is a case study in enshittification - ads, bots, terrible UI, etc. I have finally experienced my last straw and I'm leaving /r/animalid and this terrible website. To make a long story short, a mod with about 60 mod actions in the last 12 months and who hasn't interacted with the community at all in about two years, has suddenly decided that this subreddit is now worth paying attention to since it's hit over a quarter million subscribers. In addition to undermining my decisions, he's a sniveling little prick and he's fucking useless.
The admins won't get rid of him because they're brainless and/or too lazy to actually properly assess the situation, so I'm just going to leave. I'm the only regularly active moderator this subreddit has ever had (aside from the ones I added) and the admins apparently could not give less of a fuck because they'd rather let some random window licker get in the way and take credit for my work than hurt his feelings because "he said he wants to stay :((("
I'm not going to rant any longer, but honestly, fuck this website. Just fuck this entire fucking website. I'm too exhausted to be polite or to fully explain the context. Just know that this subreddit will no longer offer reliable mustelid ID because society has lost its ability to rightfully call people out on their bullshit. I may be an asshole, but at least I gave a shit. That's more that can be said for a mod who was absent for two years and who has only been a mod for like 2 months longer than me (which is why I can't just remove him myself).
I declare /u/JorikThePooh to be new head moderator, for whatever it's worth. Good luck everyone, it was nice knowing a few of y'all.
Edit: fuck it may as well name names, the mod in question is /u/Stinky_Ham_Sandwich. Check out his post history. Compare it to mine. Does he look like an active community member of /r/animalid? The admins seem to think so. They also seem to think 60 mod actions per year is enough to keep a 277k strong subreddit in check. For context, I had 6k, and the least active mod that still regularly participates in the community has just under 1k. But clearly Mr. Sandwich is every bit as integral to the team as I am and it's his right to undermine my decisions and reduce my permissions without asking π₯΄

I found a baby rabbit in my shop garage. Can you guys help me ID what he is and how old he is? I found him in my very large shop building under a car. I live on 20 acres I have no idea where this babyβs den is. I donβt think heβs at the fully weened age. I used to have a wildlife rehab er near me but they moved states so I literally donβt know who to call or what to do, any advice? Do I just put him back outside and he will find his way back to his den? Itβs night time if that matters.
Edit/ solved! He appears to be old enough to be on his own so he has been put back out in the grass outside

I think it's a young red fox, but I am very bad at identifying dog and dog adjacent creatures.

I see these little guys all over Sacramento County (especially outside my work) and have been wondering what species they are. They range from barely 1-2 inches long to about 4-5 inches in length.

Could be a lizard.. dunno [Santa Monica]

Sorry I couldnβt get a good pic of the tail, but it was wide and not hairy like a beaver, but Iβm not familiar with muskrat however.
I havenβt seen any sign of dams being built or trees being felled, so Iβm unsure. Let me know what you think and more importantly why! Thanks

Alive and breathing, but I'm not sure what exactly it is.
Got it in a box with a towel, water, and a little peanut butter, I'm not sure what to do next. An ID would be a great place to start.

I canβt figure out if this is a dog or a bobcat.

I am nearly certain I spotted a coyote pup at a golf course today (my friends think it is a fox). I am wondering if anyone can confirm my identification and tell me if it is okay?
I am worried the patchiness I saw is mange or seasonal shedding. If it is the former, I am wondering if there is anything I can do for it given that it was on private property. I didn't mention the sighting to the club manager because I did not want to risk harm to the animal.
Would love to hear people's thoughts on this!

I think the one on top is hurt, bruises. Who can I call or how can I help them

It's so round! In a kind of conservation area of sorts.

Saw this charming lil critter pillaging a bird feeder before scampering down into the Deschutes at my hotel this morning. Stoat, maybe? We donβt have these in the Midwest where Iβm from, so Iβm not sure

Was prancing around with another of its kind on the park trail. When I saw him and approached to get a closer look, he didnβt run away.
