I think it can be very difficult to judge the size of an animal in photos from wildlife cameras. I've noticed that the size of an individual in any photo changes radically when it moves closer or further from the camera. There are probably people here who know what is going on technically with the lenses. 

Sometimes people comment on a photo - say of a coyote - and discuss how big it is. I think you can judge how bulky it is, but only guess at height and length.

Also, in any species, there is a huge size range.
