I believe this to be a weasel, but it could have been a river otter, asthe only part of the animal I saw was the snout down a dark hole. Theanimal was amidst the riprap at the end of our garden, and beingtormented by two neighbourhood dogs. I shooed the dogs away, but theanimal continued to shriek for some time. I have this in WAV format if anyone requires it, but I'm sending the MP3 because the original is 26Mb long and I'm on dialup. ===FYI - I saw an animal swimming in the river a few days later, and am 98.5% certain it was a river otter. =====2007-09-07OK. My biologist wife and I have come to the conclusion that it's an American mink (Mustela vison). Poor little guy.

The first few almost sounded like they'd be claws scratching against hard rock. Nonetheless, this is very helpful, thanks!

This frightening recording scared the holy heck out of my pets when I played it.
