Identify this track ?
1 Attachment(s)
Found some large prints while out hunting with my older brother recently , they were trailing the cattle's hoof tracks . There was a second set of prints the same shape as these but 1/3 the size following beside these . They are about 3" across I assumed at first they were from a coyote but they seem a bit big from what I read . If its a large predator the farmer would probably be grateful if we got rid of it for him . Any thoughts ?

Dog probably. The coyote tracks I'm used to seeing are generally narrower.

Dog. Look at the nails.

Bigfoot. Or semi-auto shooter.:) No really, looks like a dog.

We considered it might have been a dog , just kind of odd considering how far in the woods we were . We do have a variety of 4 legged critters on this property though .
Probably someones hunting dog that got away from them , there are quite a few waterfowlers on the surrounding properties . |
I go with dog tracks too....charlie

Chupacabra, they are becoming an invasive species.

Probably someones lab got away from them . There was a bobcat on the property that crossed the fence into the neighbors property and he got him . Think he weighed around 35lbs is what he said . Predator hunting is not popular in my area . |
Thirty-five pounds is a huge GA bobcat. Unless it was actually weighed most people overestimate the weight of 'cats. They probably grow much larger up "nawth". I used to trap them for the fur when prices were high, back in the late '70s and early '80s. I saw many, many 'cats caught, and never weighed one over 28 pounds. A good friend who still traps coyotes caught a 31 pound 'cat last week. He'll be mounted.
