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 what i thought as well but the front and hind feet if it were a rabit are the same size so its kinda awkward plus there's one front foot way out in front of the other about 5 1/2 inches

Been about 100 years it feels like since I tracked them as a kidbut when they run there stride gets longer and they drag therefrontfeet somewhat.
