What made this track?

[Billy Goat]

Chupacabra

 

[Wapiti1]

'Squatch. You can tell by the wrinkles and neatly trimmed finger nails.

Wondering why you think no bobcats in the area ? Colorado does have a few lynx too.
Hard to tell without a more distinct track showing nails or not.
Wolf sounds possible.

 

[Hammnit]

My guess is coyote. Looks too narrow for a cat.

 

[Bubblehide]

To the canine folks, rotate the track 90* to the right and you have the pad of a feline.

Except in the OP's picture the 2 rear toe pads are below the fronts, unlike a cats that are alongside as in your pic.

 

[Dos Perros]

That's a kai-yote.

If you turn your head and look at the track going towards 10 oclock then it looks more like a cat track

Small cougar. My opinion based on track proportion and no claw marks. As cats get bigger, the ‘humps’ on the lower part of the pad becomes more distinct. Bigger track...

The mix of opinions is interesting.

At first glance I was 100% coyote. But when someone mentioned the track pointing to 10o'clock I have to change to small lion.

I don't see anything that looks like a cat track.

Yep. Let‘s hope that the posters here are better at identifying animals they are hunting, than tracks.

 

[KsRancher]

I originally seen the coyote/wolf track going straight. And after being brought up I could see the cat track going to the 10 o'clock position. But I could very well be wrong.

You didn’t tell us what track it is

Look at post #8. Lol

 

[The Ri Guy]

I know I already weighed in on this subject, but after thinking about it some more, it can only be one thing...a BOAL.

 

[WyomingBen]

My vote goes to lion. Looks feline to me.

 

[Preston]

It’s not a cat, both bobcats and lions have very elongated toes and the rear pad doesn’t match any cat track. Probably a coyote, looks too small for a wolf

 

[hobbes]

It's probably already been said, but it's too small for a wolf, at least an adult wolf.
