out hunting today and ran up to a nice hog wallow, to find the craziest tracks i have ever seen. they go straight out of the wallow into the thickest woods that you cant even crawl to get into. the tracks go about a 100 feet from hole to brush. left to right track is almost 4 feet apart. this pic does not do the track justice but it is 11 inches long from top to bottom of back 2 and every track to brush looks identical. may not even be a hog but if it is, move over hogzilla that hog would be a giant. so we set up a  game cam there today to see if we could see what it was.  Wink

it does look like that in that pic, i just took that pic off that phone and it looks alot more sqeezed in, but just by the placement of the other tracks you could tell a deer legs could not walk that far apart i need to get some better pics of it more than one track in the pic i mean they are all identical looking tracks not a difference in any track all the way to the brush

Any chance of an escape from a high fence in the area? Kudu, Elk, or other crazy exotic on the loose? What ever it is, shoot it......then go cook some rice!

I knew we would get proof of big foot  Grin keep us updated on the game cam etc thats interesting, if it were from 2 animials etc you wouldnt think it would be the same one all the way to the brush. keep us up to date!

My huntin partner can track just about any critter, and he says its either a red deer or elk. He's come up on a wallow before with tracks like it and it was red deer and elk using the mud hole and then headin to thick brush.

Never seen a red deer or elk here so that would be pretty cool. I just thought it was cool seein a track like that. I like the half deer half hog one I'm from Oklahoma so I could see it happening lol

 Definately looks like 2 different tracks to me.  Made at 2 seperat times.  The reason i say this is because if you look closely at the top part of the track it looks fresher than the bottom part. The top part has the leaves and grass mashed down into the track and the bottom part of the track the grass is laying over the top of the track as if it was made sometime back and the grass then died and fell over the track.  The top part of the track looks like a normal deer track .  But without knowing the size it could possiably be a reed deer or elk .  But the bottom definately was made before the top  .   JMO without seeing it in person .

Waznt trying to be a smart a$$ I just wondered where the pic was taken.. them exotics are migrating pretty far out or escaping from ranches. I have a friend down the road here in splendora tx. get a picture of 3 axis deer at his feeder last season. I personally would have been eating axis backstrap but he took pictures instead.
