I was standing next to a local who said she had never seen the water so still in the last ten years."

Mystery creature photographed in Seattle -- a kangahippomouse?
Just outside of Seattle, WA my roommate Ed recently took a photo of this . . . thing. We have no idea what animal this is but it was seemingly deaf and/or dumb as Ed got extremely close to it before it slunk away. There are two tufts of hair on it but, otherwise, it was completely bald. Any thoughts? Your help is appreciated!
