Notes:

Hi – I'm don't know what kind of tree this is – it's in a natural area between my house and my neighbor's house. We have armadillos around and when I saw this hole a few years ago I thought it may have been dug by an armadillo. My husband thinks this is a rotting tree, not created by a critter. He wants to fill the area with concrete. Advice?

    I think it was caused by a damaged root rotting back into the trunk. It might be used for shelter by wildlife but i wouldnt fill with concrete (that would exacerbate rot)
    Fill it with a ball of 1/2″ mesh galvanized wire instead.
