Found these tracks near a water hole and curious what made them. Wish I had put a quarter or something for reference. About the width of my hand.

In the area you live good chance MT lion. I hunted for them near Tucson a few years ago.
No claw marks definately makes it a cat. Could well be a cougar.
its definitly a cat theres no claw marks. and its a predetor the paws are in front of each other. id say is mt.lion
Appreciate the responses. Since that was the only tracks around the pond I suppose I know why now :)
To be honest it looks like the claw marks have just been eroded away by the weather. The toes are too big, the pad is too small and the mark itself is too narrow to be kitty tracks. That is definitely a canid animal as opposed to a feline.
I'd say it's proof that the Chupacabra does, in fact, exist.
