Although it is very dry we did have rain Saturday night into Sunday....


So I wouldn't say this was made in the mud it wasn't hard ground
either...

I for got to ask... any opinions on the size of the critter that left this print?

big enough to mount

tough to tell much from the pic, but it appears to be a rear track. If so do you have a front pad pic? What did the front pad measure accross?

Thx

Unfortunely I don't. My buddy sent me the pic and it is of a rear track. I'm guessing rear pad width to be about 5.5". The leatherman next to it is 4". He should have laid it in the track. Be that as it may, are back foot track measurements at all indicative of the size of the bear that made them?

To me they are not real helpful. It is very tough to tell from the pic but to me it looks to be of about average size and not real big.

I am a far gone bruin fanatic and look at about 50-60 a year here in my home state.

They sure are a neat critter.

Thanks Mark! I agree they definetly are a neat critter!

To me it looks as if that track is from the front and back feet. I think the bear stepped into its front track with its back foot. Just my oppinion.
