I live in Idaho so mounted animals and skins aren't that uncommon, but I showed a house once that was a stuffed giraffe neck & head sitting on the ground reaching to the ceiling.   An agent in my company showed a house where the owners had a live alligator as a pet that was in the basement, uncaged.

Listing agent advises he was unable to contact seller, so just go and knock before entering using lockbox.

As usual, Sasquatch rings the bell, pounds on the door then enters shouting, 

"Remax, anyone home. REMAX!

Sasquatch always enters first and rushes through turning on lights and opening the latches on doors.

In 15 seconds Sasquatch returns to the foyer whispering, "We're done here."

In the car he dials 911 to report a deceased person.

These answers were GREAT reading! My list pales in comparison:

Human feces and urine all over the floor.

Ice on the inside of a wall - they had water issues obviously, no heat in the house and it was freezing out.

Graffiti all over the inside of a house.

A dead squirrel inside a house.

A tank of live snakes in the attic.

Three huge dogs behind closed doors baring their teeth at me when I opened the door... we were not warned about dogs being on the property when appointment was made. (Shut that door awfully quick!) This was a tenant who obviously did not want to move. But reading some of the responses here, this seems tame by comparison!

My husband walked over no clue what he said, and the dog sat down and started licking his hand through the fence LOL.
