Bond Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Could they be a cougar? or is it some kind of dog? (click on them to make them bigger) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwa Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? From the size of the track, I would say it's a domestic dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhunter91 Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? It is definitely a canine of some sort. Felines generally don't have claw marks in their tracks because of the retracting claws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bond Posted April 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? Thanks guys I know they're way too big for a coyote. Do you think it's a wolf? Or some kind of domestic or feral dog? I put a few trail cams out because I thought it was a cougar. I guess we'll see if it comes back.

Bond Posted April 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? I haven't picked the camera up yet but I'm kinda disapointed. Every year there are sightings of cougars in the bluffs but the dnr keeps denying them. I was hoping I would get proof here but it looks like all I'm gonna get are pictures of a St. Bernard or Great Dane. It could be a wolf but now I'm leaning more towards a dog. Haven't really heard of wolves this far south. The pictures should still be good though. It's a really cool area. It's right where the glaciers stopped and dumped off a bunch of trash. There are huge boulders with ferns growing on them. It doesn't look like Wisconsin at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PAWhitetailhunter19 Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? Yeah mountain lions are great until they are stalking you while your out for a sunday stroll... I would agree with everyone else and say that this is a dog... I believe another easy way to tell the difference is to tlook at the shape of the toes... i think a felion has a diamond shaped to its toes whereas a dog is more of a perfect oval, atleast thats what i thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bond Posted April 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? You guys were right, they were dogs. But check out what else I got on the camera(see my post in the photography room). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? Good guess on the wolf track! That's about the size of them, some are a bit bigger too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moose Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Re: What kind of tracks are these? It's a dog / wolf not a cat. I have a couger up hear in Manitoba "seen him twice" and a buddy of mine has a picture of him standing over a dead elk. To find a couger track don't look on the quad tracks or in the mud "unless they slip" My experance (very limited) is they walk in the grass and don't like to get there feet wet.
