Default Mystery Animal or Dinosaur ?

Joe Tribuzio, Will Decker , and myself all got together to do a large house Inspection today.
Had fun learning from other Inspectors with no liability for a report hanging over my head,
Anyway I decided to open up a slider window at the window well and check for a drain but got a shock when I grabbed this instead of a drain opening.
Any ideas as to what it is?

Will and Joe were guessing Raccoon.
Looks like a damn alligator to me though.

Must explain the unused dog food and rubber bone that Will found.
Poor thing probably thought he found a new entry.
