Our friend Jeffrey was able to take some pictures of this bizarre creature skulking around his back yard in Toronto. Help us solve the mystery and tell us what the hell this is! Is it an animal or the end of days? I’m screaming inside.
See more terrifying photos after the jump.
…That or RJ’s evil twin brother. Could be both.
Albino raccoon.
Yes its a coon for sure. Gross regardless.

It is a hairless raccoon.
Wat een lief beeeeestjeeeeee
It’s E.T.s pet.
Oh my god, what a ugly kitten..
It’s a raccoon with mange. Shoot it and put it out of it’s misery before winter comes!

marco has a good idea there, but don’t trap it yet (unless you’re a sick SOB), since it appears to be a nursing mama raccoon. in the second and last pics you can see its naked milk-filled boobies (which means this entry is NSFW!).
It’s a bald Raccoon idiots!
I once saw a similar creature in my Toronto neighbourhood (near High Park). It had a similar shaped head but a much rounder body and more barrel-chested and its tail curled up over it’s lower back. It’s head and front half were very light in colour and it’s hind quarters were much darker (saw it at night, so difficult to decipher colours). The creature was roughly knee high. I saw it about 3 years ago and have never discovered what it was.
My vote is hairless possum.
Or, you know, chupacabra.
A raccoon with alopecia, I suspect. Definitely a raccoon, regardless.

It could also be a Fisher also known as a Fisher Cat, albeit a hairless one (part of the weasel family) but located in North America.
Kim from The Real Housewives of Atlanta let her wigamal loose after shaving it for her wig.
It’s Celine Dion. That shape shifting bitch.
I live in Toronto but never seen one of these. I would say though someone either shaved a raccoon or it is one with a terrible condition of mange and lost all its hair. Definite a raccoon though.
Yep, it’s a hairless raccoon. If it’s a frequent visitor, I’d think about trapping it and finding a wildlife sanctuary that’ll be willing to care for it… because it isn’t going to survive the winter.
I was going to say it looks like my ex-wife, but that’s not fair on the poor creature.
It is a raccoon. Either a recessive gene for hairless (same in dogs and cats) or it has a acute disease similar to mange. Freaking weird sight no doubt. Definitely one for “what the hell”
Perhaps a hairless Coati that someone decided wasn’t such a great house pet?
In any case, this thing is certainly rather horrific, much like Madonna’s arms of late…
It’s Michael Jackson!
Looks like a raccoon that’s lost it’s hair.
Looks like a racoon with a very bad case of mange.
Yikes! It’s the Canadain Chupracabra.
Looks like a hairless raccoon, probably a genetic defect?
It is obviously a racoon with no hair. Poor racoon…
It’s searching for the souls of children with it’s laser beam shooting eyes. Canada.
Looks like the devil.
I’m screaming inside with you! it looks like a hyena with alopecia, or some neighbor dog with a horrible skin condition. OR the end of days as you say. I hope NASA doesn’t experiment on it.
look like a hairless raccoon
Maybe a hairless raccoon? tell jeremy jane says hi… xj
It is a hairless racoon.
raccoon with mange
the chupacabra has migrated north?
Hyena…hairless hyena….or just….i hav no idea…
It looks like a hairless raccoon. Try sending the pictures to [email protected] The authors of the Zooillogix blog over at scienceblogs.com can usually identify weird animals. Even if they can’t, it’ll be fun to stump them.
Pretty sure that’s just a raccoon with mange.
what in the world?! a shaved raccoon?
I think it’s a naked mole rat. google it up then compare.
its a cat without hurr’!!
I’m going to go with…. Hairless raccoon? I assume it’s possible.
or it’s the end of days.
ummmmmmmm freaky hairless possum? or samantha ronson. not sure.

It looks like a shaved raccoon. Clearly unwanted hair is an issue, even in the animal world
