I went out and walked around the yard yesterday and noticed a couple different set of tracks in the snow. I wonder if yall can help me identify them. I think Ive got a turkey, deer, raccoon and something else thats dragging a tail behind it Opossum maybe?
North East NC just south of VA. Im thinking about getting some cheap game cams to see whats going on at night.
Ill go with that bogydave. The more I look at the first two pics the more I think thats way to big to be a deer but way to close together to be the dogs or anything of size. Ill go with a rabbit. My wife tells me there were a bunch of crows running around in the back yard so that must have been what it was. I still like the idea of getting a couple of game cams anybody have some suggestions.
This is a really good book for identifying tracks, trails and even scat. http://www.amazon.com/Tracking-Art-Seeing-Animal-Tracks/dp/0944475337/ref=tmm_hrd_title_0 Find a softcover copy.
Moose Tracks......no, wait, that's ice cream..... I'd say bunny, small turkey or pheasant, gotta' be some Lab tracks, and.........your puppy killed Papa Smurf. Last few are too small to tell. Took a walk up the trail early this winter and found what looked like a turkey highway. Tracks everywhere, and all going the same way. Had me baffled for a second. We have a gaggle/flock, or whatever it is running around here and up the road. Our youngest Lab keeps thinking he'll catch one as it's flying up into the trees. Silly dog. Dogs can't fly.
