It was about 1.5-2 inches wide. Just out of interest what do you think it may be? It was in Glen Clova last week!

Defo not a dog, no human prints anywhere and just not like a dog print...
Liking the pygmy polar bear option though!

If it was a haggis then there would be a second smaller print from its uphill leg, which could be right or left depending on whether it was a clockwise male or an anti-clockwise female.

Fox. You can draw a line behind the front pads without it intersecting with the middle pads. This is how to tell the difference between dog and fox prints.

There are 2 prints there though, so it's a bit confused.
