As far as I can tell, there are 3 holes in my front yard. I'm assuming they all lead to the same chamber. Here are some pics. Hand for scale. What do you think live down there?

Too big for a mole.

It's possible it's a rabbit warren, but I'd be guessing a rat.

Try leaving a couple of carrots out one night and an infant on the grass. When you come back in the morning, if the carrots are gnawed, it's probably a bunny. If the baby's face is eaten off, a rat.

Oh, and it's entirely possible it was tortoises digging their way out after hibernating all winter. They do that.
 
Moles maybe?

I was searching mole holes while hardup posted. Some look that big but have dirt mounds and trails visible.

I think it's too small for a rabbit and you'd see rabbit poop in the yard
 
My first thought was moles, but they usually make an unmistakeable furrow as they tunnel so close to the surface. It looks kind big for a mole hole.
 
Leaving carrots out tonight. I'll report back later.

Whatever it is, I'm leaving it alone. I don't like to kill things and I don't like to relocate mammals. I don't want to relocate a mom and leave some infants to starve to death.
 
A mole would leave excavated soil. I'm going to guess probably a chipmunk, or maybe a ground squirrel.

Just might be a rat
 
Eastern Cottontail rabbits do not inhabit warrens – they dig shallow depressions (4-inches or so) on the surface under bushes, fallen logs, etc. I also find that rabbits are not particularly likely to be attracted to carrots laying on the surface of the ground.

It could be chipmunks, but they don’t usually position their entrances in open grass. OTOH, multiple entrances/exits are consistent with chipmunks.
 
Ok, I was using the carrots as a sight gag. The baby, just a device for effect. And the infants are not necessarily going to starve to death -- they are just going to be food insecure. If you kill the mama. it's more likely they'll be eaten by a predator than starve. Just sayin'.

But, the irregularity of the first hole suggests a rat as well as the number of holes. It could be chipmunks. But, remember that the flow diagram cites the presence of multiple holes near a building as rats, and not chipmunks.
 
Could it possibly be gas vents, maybe Vannie is down there.
 
Of course, you being in an urban location, it could be couple of these:

Yeah, I saw that. All I can say is that the chipmunks on my suburban lot have multiple holes.

When it gets cold, chipmunks inhabit burrows that they have built underground and covered with fallen leaves. These burrows can be up to 30 feet in length and have multiple entrances.

To get outside, there are several entrances. Some might be plugged up temporarily or decommissioned permanently. A plunge hole refers to an opening that leads straight down. More complex burrows can have alternate/escape entrances.

Are the holes that big? We had chipmunks that used multiple holes (they'd go down one, and back out another to get away from my dog) but the holes weren't much larger than a golf ball.
