answer please....!!!
what lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to while lies within us - emerson
Its a wolf bear for sure...or a chupacabra.
cats can leave claw marks in tracks too...
I dunno what it is, but it tells me I'm going back the other way.
Cat track, round. Canine, elongated, narrower. Size, probably a cougar/puma/mountain lion, whatever you want to call it. I shot a 60 # bobcat in '76, its track was not half that. Look at link below. Only thing I see different is the point on the rear pad. This may be a front paw print. They have been sighted all over TX. There have been recorded kills all over south-central to east TX. There is a site that shows all documented sightings and kills.

Edit TPWD brochure on Mountain Lions in Texas with map of documented kills. Note: only goes to 2005

I'm not sure what it is. When I first saw the track (1st post) I thought it had to be a cat. Then I got the other pictures. Now I'm not sure. Shouldn't be any big cats in that part of Alabama. Shouldn't be any wolves either. It is undeveloped, untouched property with no homes near it.Originally Posted by scottiemom
It has all the features of a canine track- none of the features of a feline track. So nope, it's not Mr. Bill and it's not George but I'm strongly suspecting Dolly
What's Dolly doing out rabble rousing late into the evening?
Didn't realize it was Alabama. Remember, there is a population in FL, not really that far. Look at this. BTW, there are plenty of stories on my deer lease, Jasper Co. E. TX, about cougar sightings. Not sure, never been a big believer, but have seen some questionable tracks. Possible. But the way I see it, as many "Bubbas" and "bubba, jrs".(no offense meant) are in the woods up there, someone would have nailed one and posted on FACEBOOK "Look what I got!". LOL

malapais,, that is a word that i havent used in a while. Have had a horse or ten turn over with me in them however catching wild cows in Arizona, its never fun being on the underside of a horse wreck, but toss in some black rocks and it takes it to a whole nuther level.
Have you ever seen the black one's that roam the Sabine bottom's ?
I honestly believe that is a mountain lion, puma whatever you want to call it. Look at the main pad print that's a cats paw. Now... I live in pa.. The game commision swears that there are not mountain lions in pa. I have personally heard one scream, my brother saw one walk across the road in front of him and my mother saw one dead on the road on her way to get groceries and on the way home it was gone (she is in a wheelchair or she would have stopped). Lets remember that mountain lions are nomads. They roam...
Love life please check your pm's
I just checked my PM's, and didn't see anything new.
cougar on left and middle, dog on right
Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it.
Gator 45/70 All my life I've heard about them. A buddy and I saw a pair of eyes while rabbit hunting near the Neches river marshes one night. They were red and about 4 inches apart. Watching a rabbit we were aiming at--it disappeared into the night. Never have seen any nor talked to someone who had seen one. Know one was killed on the Sabine years ago. I agree, they are nomads and I've had people on my lease who claim to have seen tracks. I still think that if more were around, somebody would have shot it and the pic posted on Facebook.
