It looks like a pig to me? Looks close to the ground with thick hind quarters.

My money is on a pig. Like Jegs suggested. Seems too squat for a deer. Hard to tell.

Does not look like a pig to me. What appears to be an ear looks as though it may be canine or feline. What appears to be heavy hindquarters looks like a thick tail to me.

You have nothing there to show dimension so it may be smaller than you think. Shape wise, it could be a groundhog or badger critter, and I don't think we're seeing a side view, it's more angular like it may be coming out into or going away from the field.

Looks like a longer neck, small head with ears laid down, the ripple shadowing on the front and hind quarters, sloped down rump - first look made me think that I've seen that before, in my cat.

I don't see a long tail, it's hard to differentiate animal from everything else in the photo.

Could be a fisher I suppose, but if that's the only photo it's anyone's guess.

Deer.
Left hind leg forward. Right hind leg rearward, and I can clearly see the tail.
Head is down, and appears to be turned slightly to the left.
The grade of the ground falling away to where it is standing, makes it look like it is standing in a hole, or squatting down.

Tail looks like a coyote to me but the rest of it doesn't so I haven't a clue.

Is that a fire pit in the foreground? If so how long are the logs? It does look like it may be quite small hard to get a good reference.

Okay now, don't throw any rocks. :^)
When I first saw that I thought, you've caught a doe giving birth. So.... I went to YouTube and did a brief search and found these.

Now that he has pointed it out… I do see what Rick sees. I think there is a lot of confusion because there’s something very light colored in the background which makes it look like a long, curled (or at least curving) tail… Which just isn’t really there. At least not as part of the animal.
I totally understand why some folks would figure it was a pig. I kind of had the same thought, except that it doesn’t make any sense for Wisconsin.
But you can see that it’s a whitetail, with the tail clamped down pretty tight on the hind quarters.
Again… I’m not saying that I had a real clear fix on this before I read Rick’s post, but with that assist, I can get there.

Almost looks like a mountain lion because it looks like a long curved tail on the right.

Maybe the thing to do is to go over there and look for tracks?
Or at least get a picture of an object of known size in the same location to establish scale. Hopefully when I try to blow that up on my phone, I can’t see squat.

It looks like a cat, short haired and well muscled looking at the hindquarter. It looks bigger than a house cat but there is really nothing there to give it perspective.

OK......I think you "deer guys" are on to something. My son went and looked for tracks this afternoon, and the only prints were from a deer in that location.

Hippopotamus, common in Wisconsin! The pigmy version, anyway.
