    Raccoon

    • Raccoon Tracks

      Raccoon tracks have five toes with a larger set of back feet. Typically, the back feet are 3 1/8 inches long, while the front feet measure 2 1/4 inches. The back footprint is beside a front footprint because of the way it walks.

    Bobcat

    • Bobcat Tracks

      The bobcat, a familiar cat in wooded areas, can be distinguished by the absence of nail marks and a more rounded appearance. The back and front feet are about the same size, averaging a length of 1 3/4 inches and a width of 1 7/8 inches.

    Deer

    • Deer Tracks

      Deer tracks can be identified by their almond-shaped hooves. They have no toes or claws, just two pointed hooves. On wet ground, the hooves appear rounder and less pointy.

    Coyote

    • Coyote Tracks

      Coyote tracks are easily identified by their resemblance to a large dog print and the imprints of the nails. Coyote tracks take on a more oval shape than a domestic dog, and are more compact.

    Bear

    • Bear Track

      The front track of a bear resembles a large human foot, with sharp nail imprints. They measure around 7 inches long and 3 1/2 inches wide. The hind track resembles the front track, simply without the gap between the front and the heel. Bears also have five toes, just like a human.
