Weird set of coyote tracks

[chas0218]

I decided to take a quick ride into the woods with my son. We came across a wierd set of coyote tracks. Anyone have a idea of why the would look like this? It wasn't just this spot but the whole animal trail was like this.

2 legged upright walking coyote.  Lol

Could it be a bear, or coyote just walking cautiously, like sneaking around...

Or limping....?

Yes sir! You got it.

Rather surprised you didn’t see any tracks climbing up a leaning tree along the way. Neat animals.

If that's a Fischer it has huge feet. They are about the size of my 100lbs. weimaraner. I hit a coyote with my bow during bow season thought I hit him good maybe that is the one.

100% for sure a fisher and not a coyote.

Tracks melted out and big fisher leave big tracks. 

Now way in the world it is a coyote.

Looks as if the ground was slightly frozen and gave way underfoot giving the illusion of "huge feet".

Here is a set of fisher tracks I found in fresh snow that gives a better look .

Looks like a fisher when they run their feet will be side to side and front and hind will be on top of one another

Plenty around, Chas...I have not seen one  in this area either,  but have seen several local trail cam picts  and talked to local trappers who have caught and released them.. A friend who lives on 415 near Campbell has been getting trailcam picts of a pair on his property this winter...
