Well i was wrong lol, I have found tracks about that big here in NS. Arouhd 2" long in new fresh snow, not melted away so it looks bigger

Thats a Coyote track My friend

 

[Banoose]

Yeah, I would tend to agree with Adrian J. One really nice thing about the snow is the easiness of spotting tracks now! lol

Happy Winter All!!!

Prints in snow are remarkably unreliable due to distortion. Size and fine detail becomes very questionable.

This is what i was thinking too.

The pics are down, but the snow wasn't deep enough for the toenails to show.

I've seen reverse impressions after freeze and thaw cycles. They tend to get bigger with age.

I see cat/puma tracks all the time from Bobcats to Panthers in the swamps of South Florida turkey hunting just to let you know Bud.
