I was really young at the time but I had an uncle who was a mink farmer. He fed the mink chickens. He would buy a train car of frozen chickens feed them. My mom hate going to visit them because of the rats that were all over the farm.
My old buddy Ralph had a few different dogs until he settled on a pack of rat terrier. You would find mummified moles everywhere the dogs killed. The were really great squirrels hunters to. His tiniest dog was a female that you would see 100 feet of the ground combing trees that were laying over on other trees. Them dogs would tear up cat that people dumped & raccoons that came for their food. It's sad because his pack of dogs are dying off of old age & Ralph in no shape to get any more dogs.

Regardless of what this turns out to be this is your land not theirs
You pay taxes and upkeep not them
They are trespassing and need to be dealt with.
Unless they prove beneficial somehow I'd burn them or poison the sonsabitches
I do have some Texas lizards living under my ranch cabin, be we have a deal for their rent worked out.
They offer 24/7 pest control keeping scorpions and spiders cleaned up.

It is super sandy - but there's no tunnels or mounding at all; I'm leaning towards ants.
I'll go look tonight after dark. Given all the red cut leaf pieces dropped around the entrance hole (pic in my post #20) this might be them.
Soon as that ant trail runs 1300 miles directly northeast... you betcha!
I see what ya did there...
Hmmmm - if you get a sharp thin pole that can pierce the ground - shove it in the middle of one of the trails. If it pokes through easily - gopher. If it doesn't - I don't have a clue, Sister. I don't know nuthin' 'cept fireants.
If it pokes through and squeaks - dead gopher.
