Went to one of my stands that is about 200yrds from a huge sand wash and found these track with deer tracks running ahead of them.Looks like they were chasing down some deer.What do you think they may weigh.They are from two sets of tracks. I used a 125gr Snuffer as a reference.

Track -1
 

Track -2
 

and I found this 20yrds away today

Mudd,It's a coyote and they are in numbers in this area I hunt.From the yelping and howling at night the pack has to be at least 15-20 strong.They say that yotes in South Jersey are 35-40 lb I think he may go way over that mark.

Don't discount a domestic dog.  I've followed the tracks of a golden retriever I watched walk through the wood, until it hit a deer track.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Why not dogs?

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

I would say it's a domestic or feral dog. Too round to be a coyote track. Coyote tracks are 1/3 longer than they are wide and rarely show webbing between the toes.

Big Lab, Swamp Collie or something, I'd say.

It is not that easy to ID from those pics but the tracks look a bit 'round' to be coyote. JMHO

Don't know what it is, but coyotes always sound like a bunch more than whats really there. Not saying you don't have a lot of them but a few can sound like a lot.

Dog for sure. Round overall print. Wolf/coyote elongated with longer center toes. Oval overall shape.

Guys I'm not sure what it is but i can tell you that a coyotes front foot is round and its hind foot is oval and smaller than the front.

lpcjon2, we do have the largest of the coyotes, run 30lbs. to 50 lbs. from what I've heard. My two friends saw what they thought were two big dogs on the property and it turned out they were yotes. We hunted by the race track in Englishtown.

Nice big track--I shot a Utah coyote that tipped the scale at 34lbs--my biggest so far--usually they are around 25lbs

Looks more like dog tracks than coyote. But your coyotes are not realy real coyotes. Wolf hybrids type things. Go call them in and poke them. Maybe 30-45 lbs. thier paws will spread out in mud or snow. Still big. good pictures.
You can hop but you can't hide.
If it was not for rabbits I would never get a buck.
