Can you ID this print?
I was out traipsing around the hills about an hour from my home and came across this print. For location purposes, this was in the hills west of I5 in CA, pretty much due east of San Jose.

There were lots of k9 prints of various size, I’m sure some coyote but I’d imagine mostly domestic pets as it was easily accessible to a main road.

Looks like an older print with some rain washout.

Possible deer track with dew claws imprints due to the soft surface.

Hard to tell since it’s washed out but my best amateur guess is some sort of pig/boar primarily because of the two posterior impressions in the ground but this is just a WAG.

The claw marks and pad position suggest a dog of some variety. Coyote, wolf, domestic...? But dog nonetheless.

From the condition of the print, I’m guessing it’s from some kind of animal. Possibly.

Some kind of hoofed animal, most likely a hog.

Baby Yoda. Appears the Mandalorian has been on-planet again. Better alert the First Order on this unexpected development...

Aaaaaaaackshually, Grogu and Din Djarin's adventures predate the formation of the First Order by about two decades.

So there's no First Order to alert, yet.

You out on mines road area near Del Puerto canyon? or closer to observatory?
There is Elk, Mountain lion, bobcats, wild hogs, deer, coyotes and possibly black bear but Ive never heard of any bear. I’ve seen all the others in the wild while exploring back there and the several peopl I know who have land. I’ve shot at pigs and yote back there. Good luck getting an elk tag. Also livestock of course.

FYI there’s a newspaper article from November 1870 out of Pennsylvania of all places about a what we now call Bigfoot sighting in Orestimba creek. They referred to it as a wildman. Not many people living out there back then.

That reminds me:

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.
