Tracks By Who?

[Lawdwaz]

This morning we had tracks in the fresh snow from a…….???

It came from the neighbors yard then along my driveway, went under my wife’s Highlander.   We have Fox in the ‘hood but I doubt they’d go under the vehicle for no reason.  
 

Quite possibly just your everyday house cat but dragging a leg?

Disregard the big prints from my bunny slippers.

Hurt cat?

That line / drag is what my antenna from a dog's Garmin

No nail marks so don't think it's a canine? Round prints, likely to be feline. Perhaps dragging it's tail? Just a guess!

You sure it wasn’t Pygmy peeking in windows.

Longish stride for a cat?

The tracks were probably from 10pm-8am......I guess it could be a bird wing (very good assumption) but I see no blood trail FWIW.

Another good observation.  My thoughts too.......

Points to consider:

The temperatures rose over night making the tracks appear to "grow" in size but not necessarily the stride.

The fact it went under the car could be an attempt to gain cover before it ventured across the street?  I just can't see a fox doing that for no other reason as they are taller than your average everyday house cat.

I think you were really bored and just wanted to play in the snow.

A house cat stride is anywhere from 6 to 16 inches .
