J Darcy 5,871 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 went out today following a farmer mate of mine telling me he had seen a big cat print. this is what i found....ahem, ...not a big cat, does anyone want to hazard a guess which mammal it is??? but i didnt waste the journey at least as i saw a great photo opportunity to take a flower in the rain, and what a colourful sight it is...

john b 38 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 well the scale is difficult to judge, but it looks like a human handprint to me; the thumb just visible on the left and with the fingers folded under and the marks made by the knuckles. As if someone tripped and put there hand down to get back up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Royston2 0 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 problem with badgers there back feet on prints nearlly always step into the front harder to tell always look like theres only four not five..badgers toes always have the four toes prominent because they are stuck on the front of the foot the fith is always misplaced not helping as its normally smudged with the back going in to the front Quote Link to post Share on other sites
