Fits in the "cat"egory, no?

Also known as binturong. It's actually neither a bear nor a cat, but a civet. Native to southeast Asia.

Looks like an assassin bug. But I'm not sure what kind.

Ok, here's a more temperate frog. I've never seen a red eyed tree frog before, but I've seen lots of these little guys...

No Guesses? They are plentiful in the North East of the US (and elsehwhere in the US). They can be heard in the Springtime, often in early March, when it's still pretty cold around here.

Yup. Spring Peepers. We used to track them by flashlight when I was a teenager. As you got close they would stop peeping, but if you stood still a few minutes they would start again. Then you shined your light on the next place you thought they were peeping from and walked over to it (at which point they would stop peeping again). Eventually we could narrow it down to a 6" patch of ground and when he started peeping again, we could find him (they don't seem to be afraid of the flashlight, only nearby noises).

You're up.

ooooohhhh, I'm up! I think it's too late for me tonight. If no one from Europe posts over-night, I'll try to get a new animal up tomorrow.
