[McLaren, Suzanne]

I agree with Cody.  When I saw the second image, I immediately thought of some kind of African Suid.

I second Curtis's raccoon ID, and I am learning towards warthog as well for the second.

Greetings Mammals people!

I have a couple of skins that defy identification and I’m hoping someone in the community can help?  I believe one is a raccoon (albeit extremely faded and sans a tail) and the other one has me stumped.  Perhaps baby elephant?
Any help would be greatly appreciated…Thanks!
