Mt Lion?

Found these tracks near a water hole and curious what made them. Wish I had put a quarter or something for reference. About the width of my hand.

No claw marks definately makes it a cat.  Could well be a cougar.

To be honest it looks like the claw marks have just been eroded away by the weather. The toes are too big, the pad is too small and the mark itself is too narrow to be kitty tracks. That is definitely a canid animal as opposed to a feline.

I'd say it's proof that the Chupacabra does, in fact, exist.
