Texas Parks and Wildlife said the visitor had taken the photo with a game camera — which is used in hunting — in the Rio Grande Valley.

"We’re scratching our heads trying to identify this elusive creature. Is it a new species? An escapee from a nearby zoo? Or just a park ranger in disguise," the park wrote in a social media post. "Regardless, it’s thrilling to see such an incredible animal in its natural habitat."

The honey badger, on the other hand, lives in Africa and Asia and — according to Texas Parks and Wildlife — "is rumored to not care very much."

The mystery remained unsolved as of Monday.
