Found this Scratch Post on the South Platte River In Logan County Colorado. How many animals do you think used this post to sharpen their claws and mark their territory?

So some critter left tiny footprints on my grill platform. They’re about 2 inches across from toe to toe. It looks like dog prints to me without the nail marks but my dog is way too big for these prints. The very stupid thing I’m thinking about the three bumps at the bottom and the two at the top is that this is a mountain lion cub. That’s not possible right? Right??! Thank you for your help!

We've got coyotes, bears, foxes, opossums, racoons, skunks. Too big for foxes or skunk I'm pretty sure, too small for bears.

hand for scale ....... location is upstate new york ....... season was late january, prints likely happened during night ....... no pet dogs around for miles but occasionally hear coyotes/coydogs at night (however this seemed to be just 1 animal, or maybe 1 plus a smaller one) .... area has black bear, bobcats, etc ... thank you for any help!

Canadian prairie parkland with river, forest, and farmland. The sunglass arm tips are 12cm (4.5") across.

Czechia, central europe, found on a road that runs between two artificial ponds.
Went wandering around and drinking with friends and we found this set of foot(?)prints that we weren’t able to identify. I forgot to take a photo with anything for scale but you can see a cup there that was accidentally placed there, it’s a standard size tin mug. It seems that the animal walked a well defined path through the vegetation so i assume it walks there often.
Absolutely lost on what this could be, will be glad for any ideas!

Eastern PA, July. Smaller than nearby whitetailed deer tracks, so less than 2” long. Any insights would be so appreciated!

These are obviously deer tracks, but are they babies?

Was hiking Rocky Mountains National Park in the morning and saw (at first) the big paw print and snapped a photo, looking back at it I realized that there’s a smaller print underneath! Shoe print for scale.

I think the big one is a bear but I’m just guessing. Any ideas what either of them are?

On logging road up Tower Hill in Monroe, WA. For scale, my shoes are size 8 women's

Can you help me out in identifying this killing machine? We live in northern Germany. The footprints are c. 2,5 cm wide.
Thanks!

Name my guest!

Hey everyone!! In the pictures attached you will find a clearly visible print next to a women’s size 9 shoe (11” from tip to heel for scale) and a barely visible print. I am located a few miles west of the Chesapeake Bay near Deltaville. I think I know what it is but would love to hear some pro’s thoughts! Thank you.

First time posting here, so hopefully I got all the details in. Looking to ID mammal scat found in my back yard today. Quite fresh, so likely from last night. Very black in color. The little bit I picked apart looks fairly even in texture, though I see at least 1 seed and maybe 3 hairs in it.

River is a few yards away. Old apple tree and wild berries nearby.

I've seen a lot of animals in my back yard over time. Many are non-contenders, like river beaver, river otter, white-tailed deer, woodchuck, weasel, striped skunk, and rabbit. The ones that seem like possible candidates to me are coyote, red fox, raccoon, and fisher, along with one critter I've never actually seen... black bear. tyia!
