Unidentified Tracks
 
I was taking my dog for a walk through the woods in my neighborhood we've had about 8 inches of snow in the past week. The picture below are the tracks i stumbled across i know for sure it was a bipedal animal it was the same pattern as a human track but i have never seen anything like this before each impression was about a foot long and spaced about a foot and a half apart but the thing thats really confusing is the impression was only a few centimeters deep into the snow I attempted to make a similar depth with my boot, it was a very dry snow so there was no support from ice on the snow whatever it was had to only be making maybe 4 ounces of pressure on the snow. I walk through my woods at least 2 times a day and have never seen anything like this before at all. Any advice of help would be much appreciated thank you

that pattern of tracks comes from the one and only mr rabbit. very easily distinguished because it makes that T shape.

Yip, rabbit. The two upper tracks are from the back feet, and the two inline tracks are the front feet! If you look at the actual tracks again, you should notice that the two upper tracks will be longer than the inline tracks are, hence longer back feet compared to short front feet.

If there was a tail drag mark I would say a kangaroo

Most likely rabbit.
Maybe a kangaroo rat, with tail drag instead of 2 distinct rear tracks.
Or even some fast moving squirrels. Depending on the size.
I do like the alien theory too.:D
