Walking or trotting? I don't see much dirt slung forward so I assume it's walking. There's a bedding area about 50 yards from this track. It appears to go in and out of the bedding area quite a few times a day. All tracks from it look pretty much the same. I'm trying to learn tracks better.

I may be wrong, but I was always told if you see the dew claws in the back they are running.

That's the same thing I was always told but I read in a book about a month ago that it also depends on the deer's weight but like I said, I'm just trying to learn a little. It almost has a trail going in and out of this area and all of the tracks look almost identical to this one.

Dew claws are a sign of soft ground, or heavy weight. Toes being spread, usually means a deer is running.

I regard that track as belonging to a deer (probably a buck) that was walking or standing. IMO that is not a running track

Curious as to why he would always trot in and out of there, unless it's just because this particular spot is a little funnel between cover.

Really? Okay....I am about 99.99999% convinced that track is not from a running animal. Also 99.99999% convinced that you are full of horse shucks if you are ignorant enough to think that is a running track.

I've said things like that before to people before I turned 16, and usually I meant it exactly like it sounded. Once I grew up and became an adult, moved out of my parents basement and became a little educated, I soon started to at least consider other peoples opinions.... If for no other reason than the fact that MINE is not the only opinion out there.

The dirt appears to be very damp yet there is no earth disturbed around the track, not even a crack. Once again IMO that track was made by a calm animal walking or standing on damp to wet earth.

Boxman, its a no win situation for you. After you've been around awhile you'll understand. carry on.
