Expert Opinion Sought
Really big coyote or really small bear? We do have large yotes, but there have been rumors of a small bear being spotted. I am hoping coyote. The shoe btw is a size 12. There was both hair and fruit involved.
Looks more like a yote to me. Very dog like. None of my visiting bears have left deposits looking anything like a dog's. And I've had them of all sizes.

ReplyDeleteI agree with joated. Bear is usually a lot sloppier and not so segmented.
ReplyDeleteJoated, that is pretty much the consensus among all experts in the field. Thanks! I am so glad that this time at least it was NOT a bear.
ReplyDeleteNita, thanks!
Anon, betcher right!
I'm leaning toward coyote! Seems like everyone else is also!
