Atlantic Salmon.

It looks round to me so I'll venture feline. It seems canines are USUALLY longer, and maybe even see the claws? Cool observation shot either way.

 

[Freestone]

Feline, I think. No claws.

 

[Jim F.]

Cat.

 

[BriGuy]

[Greg Armstrong]

Cat

Looks canine to me but the lack of a claw print is in general indicative of a cat. I find in general cats leave a very slight print in soft substrate per weight version canines. That looks to be of substantial depth. Yet I'm just guessing as I have no clue what the ground is like.

These two separate sets of cougar tracks are in snow, so they won’t look quite the same As yours.

But comparing them to the one in your photo I’d say it was a cougar that made the track in your photo.



mitten for scale…

I vote feline.

When she grows bigger to make footprints that size.

You guys are making me nervous. I fish here solo all the time!

Thanks for the input.

Looks like you're not solo after all...
Cat...big one too

I've never seen anything but deer and one bear when ever I ventured into the woods. Plus I always fished alone. It made it easy as to when I came and when I went home. Saw a lynx one time on the Beckler. And a bear on the Pilchuck Creek. Come to think on it , I have seen many bears, but that's from driving all over the place.

Typically, you don't see cats; Cougars, Lynx & Bobcats DO see you, however . . .

My buddy took this on one of our backpacks in the Park last year. Massive.

First one looks like a cat. This last one looks more like a dog since there are claws although its giant (bear?)
