have 2-3 inches of fresh snow and saw some strange but unique tracks this morning. Sorry i dont have picks but it has about 6-8 foot by 10" wide drag marks in the snow then the drag stopped then 4 fox like paw prints then this drag mark(there was also random paw prints in the drag marks) again there was about 12 inches between the drags. i thought a fox running pulling a rabbit, but i found no evidence of a kill, and i followed them for 3 miles. The drag marks are much to deep for a tail. i then thought an animal with leg trap caught on its tail, but i saw these tracks on a lake then 5 and 10 miles away in different driections. any thoughts?

You did'nt mention where you live, but maybe a badger, wolverine?

sounds like big foot

Otter.

:celebrating: What ever it is i would not go back in the forest. lol :celebrating:

hey you got it. I did a search on otters and found it. Good call. I have never seen an otter in the winter before? oh well i guess theres an abundance of them around here.


Thanks

It's a river otter i've trapped lots of them here in northern Manitoba.

U honestly followed that critter for 3 miles?

I saw some cat prints at the edge of big sebois lake just south of Oxbow Maine last week. Too big for a bobcat or linx , Is there couger around there?
