Looks to be a dead vole.

Does your yard look like this in the spring?

[nzwasp]

Looks like your standard rat to me, you should send this to fish and wildlife, there will be agents at your house in no time.

Oh yes we did/do. It was even a HUGE problem for a long time until the gov of Alberta basically instituted a freakin' genocide against them at all costs.

Edit-
I was assuming nzwasp was being facetious, as they are really serious about rats.

There's a huge rat infestation in medicine hat right now isn't there?

Vole. notice the small front paws/claws? Pocket gophers have much larger claws, as well as huge front teeth. We have Voles all over the place.
