Ok y’all, I’m not sure what made this track and I was hoping some of you could help me figure it out. I found this track on a piece of plywood where I was working one of my barns on my 200 acre property near Senoia. It looks like dog to me but the size is ridiculous. It was over 5” wide and 5” long. I need to emphasize that I do have a 110 pound German Shepherd and I have included his largest footprint (around 3” across) that I could find from the same day on the same piece of wood, I took him back there for the purpose of trying to see if the track could have been made by a big dog. The morning that I found this track all of my dogs were still in the house and had not been out since the night before. What I can say for sure is that this track what not made by one of my dogs. I’m not trying to imply that this track is out of the ordinary or special by any means, I’m just really curious what others may think. That is my size 13 GA Boot in both pictures. If I posted this in the wrong category I apologize but I know hunters are the most helpful with this type stuff. Thanks!

Just a large dog.

That one on the right is a double. Stepped in it twice for some reason.

The pad of a bear is much larger and it's digits are smaller and closer together-they almost line up straight across as well.
