5 years ago in Woodbury I had direct register prints through fresh snow that had the length of stride and size of paw to be nothing smaller than a large German Shepherd. They generally looked like cat prints but had been melted a bit by bright sunlight and wind. Damn VT weather! lol I got several new neighbors the following summer and that ended that. Also, no more dear at the apple trees, no more bears at the apple trees, no more rabbits around the yard and the turkeys have moved their preferred path about .3 miles down the road.
