What left this track?
 

Appreciate any help. Got my own ideas, but would appreciate yours. In Virginia, but don't let that rule anything out. Thanks

looks like a canine of some sort...notice the claw marks...it if were a cat of some sort the claws most likely would have been retracted....probably a dog or coyote....big coyote if it was.

coyotes paw print is more pointed than the print in picture

RE: What left this track?
 

I don't know maybe a bear. What do you think it is? That is one big coyote if that is what it is.

RE: What left this track?
 

I was thinking skunk but the track seems too deep, I'm thinking maybe bear based on depth of track, or one big coyote, but honestly I am kinda stumped.

Common Dog. Sorry.[8D]

RE: What left this track?
 

A Lab would be my first guess,or other large dog

RE: What left this track?
 

No doubt in my mind.. Thats a dog track.

RE: What left this track?
 

only one way to find out leave some hot dog weiners out there and see if the tracks come around it lol

RE: What left this track?
 

That's what i was thinking of also.

RE: What left this track?
 

Dog tracks,maybe coyote.As you can tell there is 2 tracks in the pic,one below the other.My guess is the animal was running.
Not bear tracks,they areto narrow and long,unless it is one of those real small virginia bears;)
Bear tracks tend to be more rounded. Bears also have 5 toes and claws,pic is only showing 4 which is a definate giveaway for amember of the dog family.

RE: What left this track?
 

My front yard is peppered with tracks that look like that and I have a Great Dane for family pet...

RE: What left this track?
 

Bear??? they dont look like that in my area??? Just kidding. :D


It is a track from a 3.5 year old yellow lab named Drake. He walks with a slight limp because of a injury he got as a puppy. He was west bound on the tracks of his owner, a 35 year old women who enjoys long walks on the beach and getting caught in the rain.

Could it be a wolf,about the same size. I know I see more and more wolf tracks every year.

RE: What left this track?
 

i would say a large dog.if it were a cat track you wouldn't be able to see the claws

RE: What left this track?
 

Looks like a dog to me. No way that's a bear...

RE: What left this track?
 

Another vote for a large domestic dog.

RE: What left this track?
 

got any couger around the way the back legs meet up with the front that is how those cats run.

RE: What left this track?
 

TheFelines have a space between the toes and the palm pad forms a curved ridge, which sometimes called a linked ridge. Canines do not have this feature. They have a diamond or pyramid shape in this area of the track. ;)it's a dog:D

RE: What left this track?
 

thanks huntnma i learned something

RE: What left this track?
 

Do you have badgers in virginia? They have very large paws

RE: What left this track?
 

Well,

I'm guessing your hand is approximately 7 inches from the tip of your middle fingerto the base of your palm (average caucasian male). That makes that front track ~3.5 inches. Definitely a dog, not only by shape, but also by pattern (hind is smalleri and inside the front).

Could easily be a coyote, especially a female carrying an extra 40 pounds of pups, because that track appears sunken quite deep.
