2 Clues for Deer Mouse: I have brown fur on my back and white fur on my belly. My tail is not bushy but small and smooth. My body (not including my tail) is about the size of a chicken egg. I move around and eat at night. Some people think I eat cheese but I really eat insects, seeds, nuts, flowers and fruits. Am I (show photos) a Northwestern garter snake? Sharp-shinned hawk? Deer mouse?

3 Clues for Douglas Squirrel: I have fur that is brown and gray. I eat nuts, mushrooms, fruits, berries and seeds from cones, and new shoots of plants. I make my winter nest in a hole in the trunk of a tree. I make my summer nest out of moss, bark and twigs in the branches of a tree. I have a bushy tail. Am I (show photos) a Western tiger swallowtail? Sharp-shinned hawk? Douglas squirrel? K-5a Images: Mystery Animal Cards Photo by Heidi Bohan

4 Clues for Little Brown Bat: I have brown fur and wings. I like to fly around at night. I hang from my feet in trees, caves and hollow logs when I sleep. I use radar to catch mosquitoes, moths, gnats, craneflies and wasps. Am I (show photos) an American crow? Douglas squirrel? Little brown bat?

5 Clues for Northern Flying Squirrel: I have soft brown fur. I have flaps of skin stretching from my arms to my legs that help me glide from tree to tree. I have a long furry, flat tail.

7 Clues for Pacific Treefrog: I like to live in many places but I lay my eggs in water. I love to sing at night with other creatures just like me. My skin is smooth, moist, and usually green, although sometimes I have brown, red, or black patches on me. When humans pretend to be me, the sound they usually make is, Rib-it. Am I (show photos) a Douglas squirrel? Garter snake? Pacific treefrog? Photo by Heidi Bohan

8 Clues for Raccoons: I have four legs and a furry tail. I like to live near streams, but I also don t mind living in your backyard. I like to eat many things including bugs, bird eggs, frogs, fish, fruit, nuts (keep your pet s food indoors or I might eat that too!) I like to roam around, mostly at night. I have a black mask over my eyes to disguise me when I go out on nightly food raids. Am I (show photos) an American crow? Western Swallowtail butterfly? Raccoon? Photo by Heidi Bohan
