    Now this pic the critter appears to be heading right with the back tracks in front.Looks like a slow hop because the pattern almost looks squirrel like.7 inches is quite large for a squirrel pattern though.The smaller front tracks look like the toes are to the left but the back tracks look like...

    I"ve always loved stories aboutTrappers like Hugh Glass and the Mad Trapper from the Yukon. I doubt those guys are really out there for the money.I think the money is just an excuse to live their lives in the bush and it helps with the few things they might want but can't make themselves,like...

    This isn't exactly what I was looking for but it is a good set of tracks.I did make one mistake.When the tracks come down in front (back tracks) they are even but the front tracks in the back are diagonal.Look at 1:07 in the video.You can plainly see the larger back tracks in front of the...

    if thats the case He probably stopped there to look around.If a rabbit is in running mode his back feet fall in front of his front tracks and the back feet hit diagonally to the front tracks.If they are hopping and eating and looking around then his back feet may fall behind thefront tracks...

    Mark a definite way to tell rabbit6 from squirrel is a squirrels back legs fall even ,right in front of the front legs making the pattern look square. That is a normal travelling stride.A rabblits back feet fall in front of the front feet and are diagonal.This is from a rabbit being a ground...

    As much as I love Coyotes I feel that they are the reason the quail and grouse have disappeared. About the time the coyotes came in the ground nesters moved out

    The reviews on this I"ve been reading swear the 1971 version "Man in the Wilderness" was much better.

    PS the woods in this area in some places smack of the Barrens,mostly higher up on the ridges,down lower a lot of nice beech and holly woods,very open and tree trunk sized poison ivy vines down near the streams.The streams are very unbarrens like though.Actually had a small rapids on this one...

    Bob I thought it was a spring house since we were right next to a decent size stream and many springs were issuing out of the hillside and visibly flowing down into the creek.We had an until recently cultivated field behind us that the state bought a few years ago and my friend said he tinks it...

    That would be known as "Indirect register" where a track partially falls in the one in front of it.Direct register is where the back track falls exactly inside the front track.Cats and foxes do this when at a normal walking pace.Coyotes like dogs have too broad of a chest to direct register
