Hi guys
With all the talk about predator sign and tracks, I just wanted to post a quick way to determine whether you're looking at a canine or feline track. Depending on ground conditions, sometimes you can't see the claw marks in a canine track like you normally do. However, the quickest way to tell if you're looking at a canine or feline track is to see if you can draw an "X" through the track without touching the pad. If you can draw an "X" without touching the pad, then it's canine. If you can't, then it's a feline. Below are a couple of examples.
Canine Example
Feline Example
Wolf Track
Bobcat Track
