Otter, Fox, Coyote & Other Wildlife Tracks In The Snow...

While it can be challenging to see wildlife when the weather turns cold, it can be interesting to look for evidence of their passing, especially when there is snow on the ground.  Some tracks are easier to identify than others.  See if you can guess what made these tracks...






These tracks would indicate a virtual wildlife highway...


These are from an otter traveling on the snow from one open water hole to another...





And the tracks on this section of ice would be smoking hot having just been made by a Red Fox...
