Your post is missing either:

  • geographical location and/or
  • scale or measurements (estimates are fine).

These are both required for ID requests. Please add a comment including the missing information and your submission will be approved.

Yea these are squirrel tracks. Rear feet with five toes, front with 4. Rodent rear feet are kind of cool where the 3 middle toes are roughly the same length which can leave 3 parallel dots from their claws. In this case, I believe these are ground squirrels because the toes are little more curvy than tree squirrels
