history: I was home alone and heard what sounded like scratching underneath the floor. I was worried an animal was under the house, and that it might be able to get into the house, and that it might be something dangerous. I thought I heard an animal trapped under my house last night. Oh yeah? What kind of animal do you think it was?
current: I think it might have been something large. There was a lot of noise and scratching.
next: Maybe it was an armadillo. I get them in my yard sometimes.
