Yep. They're from the abominable snowman. Helpful, aren't I?!
Seriously now, how big were they, seperation, etc? To me the front pair look like hooves, don't know how likely that could be though - if it was I'd have expected to see human's alongside. The front ones just look too different to the back, to me... not too experienced in this though!
Anyone else?

'y' formation hare or rabbit and if a match box covers the foot print it is a hare the smaller 3/4 size print is a rabbit. hope this helps.

Also you have labeled the photos the wrong way round the small round prints are the front feet, the long prints are the back feet.

I thought as there were 4 I thought they were from the same animal so looks like the large ones are hare and the small are rabbit..
Thanks guys... |

Its the same animal. They leave this distinctive Y shape with the two front feet at the back and the hind larger feet at the front. | | | |
