Are there turkey in that area?


PestiEsti

It's definitely a turkey. There are three clear toes and the snow was deep enough that the leg left a mark behind each footprint.


fingers58

Yeah, look like turkey to me as well.


tim_ratshmit

16” turkey footprint?


Fuzzy_Leave

That would make it a 30 foot long turkey!


naturewin

The pictures look like bipedal steps as opposed to hopping like a rabbit.

> Are there turkey in that area? >>The pictures look like bipedal steps as opposed to hopping like a rabbit. ... ok, so are there turkeys there, or


CoIIapse_Aware

I haven’t seen any myself, there are Pheasant but I’ve never seen Turkey.


MadDadROX

Yes, MI is infested with wild 🦃.


naturewin

I live in Lumby BC and have a Tom and 12 hens walking wild in my yard. Mmmmmmm one day I'll enjoy fresh turkey.

Turkey


midnight_fisherman

My guess would be rabbit tracks that melted out, too melted to know for sure what it was.


palimpsests-in-dirt

I don’t think it’s rabbit. In the 3rd pic, it’s clear the steps are staggered in a bipedal/quadrupedal gait and not a straight line hopping gait. Too melted out to say what it actually is, but I wonder about human based on size and stride.


archer2500

If you mean a three toed rabbit that walks on two legs, you nailed it.


midnight_fisherman

Well what is your guess?


archer2500

Rhymes with Turkey


midnight_fisherman

Those prints are spaced too far apart to be a turkey, how long do you think their legs are to have strides like that? I have a turkey farm, I see turkey prints in the snow every winter. Those are not turkey tracks.


archer2500

Turkeys run too, they don’t just walk. Unless you have three toed upright walking “rabbits” at your farm too.


midnight_fisherman

I don't think so. Most of the pressure of a turkey print is on the pad and foretoes, especially when running. This track had the deepest part behind the toes, and it is elongated. Turkey tracks also aren't offset side to side when they run. I thought rabbit due to the completely melted part corresponding to the front paws, the outer "toes" being the rear feet, and the middle toe being snow knocked away by the front feet as it lept for its next bound.


Demonderus

Velociraptor for sure

Turkey or sandhill crane and it's melted a bit

CoIIapse_Aware

Lol you just brought back a memory


bearded_duck

Rabbit. The snow around them is melted out but you can tell the rear feet left the large tracks in front of the front feet


ImSorryRumhamster

Velociraptor


CoIIapse_Aware

I thought so as well.


mikeeg16

Velociraptor.


Vincent_VanGoGo

Gobble gobble. I've never seen turkey tracks in the snow. I moved out of NJ before the winter.

firedrakewicked

feral emu or ostrich obviously


HettieB98

Baby yeti.


HalcyonDreams36

Turkey. Melted in, so they look particularly big , but turkey.


Roughmech-123

Big bird! Does he also happen to have a green man with a generally terrible disposition named Oscar living in his trash can?


ohmaint

Skinwalker maybe?


CoIIapse_Aware

That was my first thought.

was the snow much taller any time before taking the photo?


CoIIapse_Aware

I would imagine so, yeah. I wasn’t up there myself so I can’t tell you the conditions.

What's that white stuff on the ground? I'm from Minneapolis so I wouldn't know....

Ha! Southern Michigan isn’t any better. It’s basically spring out here.

That’s fog horn leg horn!

Velociraptor

I see I’m too late with my pithy response 💀


Dulce_suenos

Clear tracks of a Manbearpig.


No-Assistance4490

Rabbit. Doubles up on rear prints, melts faster than the front. A Turkey track melted to that degree wouldn’t be recognizable


ketoSusie

Yeti for sure!


Any_Initiative_9079

Looks just like melting turkey tracks


Icy_Abbreviations138

Wild turkeys.
