| | | Help Identifying SnowPrints
I've been getting a few email requests for help identifying snowprints, so I thought I'd start adding some here for everyone to have a guess at:   
From Jose B by email "I hope someone can help identify the rather large tracks that passed through my garden over the snow.
I live in Sevenoaks, Kent. I have seen the resident fox and his dainty tracks, but this morning something cut across the garden leaving rather large tracks.
I am just VERY curious. Neither of my neighbours have pets this size. Did not look like a dog, anyway."
Any ideas

Yep. Definitely a rabbit. Had you followed the tracks you would almost certainly have found characteristic 'droppings' within a few yards. |

If each of those prints showed four toes on one foot that would have been one big beastie.
(thats another vote for Bugs BTW) |

There were loads of bird prints on the drive this morning, very cute  .

Yet another vote for rabbit. Either that or Pic 3 shows the single track of a giant one legged inline hopping Thing!
