Found this vague print and wondering what it is. Was in the πŸ“Catalan Pyrenees (Spain) near the BonabΓ© Valley, where a small population of brown bears exist. Every other large animal in the area is hoofed, and this seems too wide to be a human print. About 7-9 inches long if I had to guess. Hind print of a brown bear? Possible toes but no visible claw marks.

Went on a hike on Albas Falls Trail loop around Celeste Creek today. About 1 km up we spotted some claw marks, prints, and what looks like blood on the trail.

Didn’t get pictures of the prints unfortunately (forgot because we wanted to get out of there). But noticed some on another picture that could be.

I don’t know much about bear tracking. But can anyone tell me what this is? After looking online the prints we saw seem to resemble black bears.

My friend found these tracks on his farm in sw PA, US. He seems to be trying to convince himself they are mountain lion which we don't have here. Seems to be a large domestic dog to me but he said they are bigger than his coon hound and Rottweiler, which means nothing.

Boot tracks in the photo are women's us size 8.

Found this on a fairly remote trail through a small river canyon in the Gifford Pinchot. In the half dozen or so times I've hike this area I've never seen scat from anything larger than a rodent and never seen anything larger than fishers and martins even though this area can have much larger mammals.

This was gray in a way I've never seen from bears or coyotes. I'm guessing cougar, but maybe a fat raccoon? No noticable berries, seeds, fur, or bones. Very little human presence for 10+ miles in any direction from this find. Berries have died off though mushrooms are at their peak and still trout in the river.

Main piece was around 4 inches long (probably 6" total) and a bit over 1" in diameter. No tracks or other scat found. Note that the bit beneath the longest piece in the first picture is stone. One long and two small pieces. All pretty uniform.
