Ontario by Lake Huron. Almost looks like wings? My first guess was Owl. But then I kicked up the snow and found a poop, maybe fox or similar. Very confusing for me.
As the title says, I have been in a vacation for 10 days..
By reaching home, I found this tiny little poop upon my diary.
All the doors and windows were closed.
Can someone please help to track the animal?
Centre County PA, I cant figure it out my guess based on size would be black bear but the shape doesnβt quite match.
Noticed these last night so I know it's hard to tell from my picture, but I think these may be bear tracks? I live in MA and bears have been spotted in my area before. But im not understanding the walking pattern, and is there two of them? Is something hopping ? Maybe i can get a better picture during the day.
Found in North Idaho, Coeur dβAlene / Bitterroot Mountain area. About 3000β elevation. On a forest service road. Heavily treed forested area. About 2-3β long. Seemed small to me, like a small animal? Any ideas? Also saw blood speckles nearby in the snow like maybe it caught something? Carnivore? Sorry I didnβt get photos of the blood, it freaked me out so I skied on by.
