What kind of animal would be in a hole like a rat hole but has claws like a lobster and would be in Ohio?

Question

It is not a vole because it has claws like a lobster and it was in the field when I walked my dog ,no water source around

Answer 1

a vole.....it looks alot like a mouse but can get as big as a rat....and has claws to dig...they seldom come up and eat the lawn from below....and also the grubs that are in your lawn....they do a lot of damage to the ground and when they do come to the surface its because they hit water.

Answer 2

What? No clue.

Answer 3

I  know this :) haha

I was once in the pond searching for some frogs for a project in the club and I was using the net and I took the net and swiped it across the bottom of the pond and i lifted it up and when I saw what was in it I almost screamed. Then I realized it was a lobster, like creature called a Crawdad.

Answer 8

It might be a terrestrial crayfish, if it is in a hole in the ground, especially if the ground is extremely moist.

One would need more information than you have given to idenitify what it is.
