Can You Identify These Animal Tracks? Boys' Life magazine

I only got 4/10 - shouldn't be hard to beat.

 

[jaxs]

I have best luck when something is standing in the tracks.

 

[oosik]

The only "tracks" I saw in that link were - ghost tracks.

Ah - now the skill test finally downloaded for me. 7/10

 

[Wagtail]

7/10

And these aren't even my type of critters.

 

[polo1665]

Got 9/10....missed the bear....and that was the one I figured to get without a problem.

 

[Gem99ultra]

I got lucky and GUESSED 5 out of 10. But the test is 'no fair'! They should have shown a full view of each critter's feet

I think that I'll want Mr. Polo1665 to go out hunting with me next time.

I guess 7/10, missed the bear too, which surprised me as they leave tracks all over around here. The white tail deer look alot like llama.

 

[CWB Wyo]

I got 7/10 not to bad for city boy.

 

[wngsprd]

9/10 missed the muskrat.

 

[Thomas]

8/10 Muskrat Opossum wrong.

 

[Zippo1]

Only 5 out of 10 here. The fact that there was no way to judge size throws me. I'm used to seeing them in the ground where it's easy to judge the relative size of the track.

 

[Gary Fowler]

Got 8/10.

 

[MossRoad]

We don't have half those animals in Indiana. I got the cow and train tracks correct, though.

Yep this was my problem too. I pretty much know every track I ever see in the snow or dirt of critters in Ohio. Have hunted everything on four legs, in Ohio, starting very young. The pics were not great and I just flew through them and guessed pretty quickly.
