You forgot about the swishy walk. So its either a gay chupacabre or a cross dressing chupacabre.

With a pink Benchmade to skin it with....
Now that is funny and not funny at the same time.
My guess is that it is nothing #4 buck can't fix.

Only if its between him and a news camera.
Barb,
That is a bobcat track. They are very rounded looking just like in the pictures, and coyote or fox tracks will be slightly elongated at the middle toes on each foot, especially the front feet. Those prints are way too big for any normal fox, and they are even big for a large eastern coyote. They also walk basically one in front of the other, which is another sign of a bobcat. I don't have bobcats running around me here, but we do have coyotes and fox around us. We trapped a nice fox amd coyote off my property 2 winters ago. We used to have lots of rabbits here, now we have none.

Thank you! We possibly saw one about a year ago a block away from here. It was a big darkish cat with a shaggy face and stumpy tail and quickly hid behind a rock so we couldn't get a really good look.
Big paws. I wonder what they eat around here because there are no rabbits but plenty of chipmunks and squirrels.
No styrofoam box for me. I'm environmentally sensitive. Just put me in a recycled paper wrapper.

Barb,
They'll eat birds ( somewhere here, I have a cool picture of one taking a flying bird right out of the air), mice that are tunneling under the snow, pheasants, grouse, even deer fawns when their mothers leave them alone to go off and feed. The cat you saw sounds just like one from the description you gave. They have very large feet, with fur that extends out even farther, to help them "snowshoe" over the snow to allow them to be able to catch fleeing rabbits, etc.
I hope that helps.

It's also mating season of this winged hairy beast.

OK, I'll say it...
I guess everyone is reluctant to say it, but I'd say you have a rather short guy walking around on his gloved hands in your yard.

If you have a little time it might be interesting to bait it and/or maybe try a wounded rabbit call. Maybe bring a friend with a camera.
We live in an area with an fair amount of wildlife. We have to scan for hawks, coyotes and owls prior to letting our toy rattie out.
Nice little home adventures are cool as long as nobody gets hurt.

Hard to tell from your pix --- the drag mark is uncharacteristic of an animal in your vicinity, but, the one-foot-in front-of-the other is suggestive of a fox, one of the few canids that doesn't leave a double-track, roly-poly gait mark, as do cats. I'm guessing these tracks are those of a fox with an injured leg, explaining the track pattern and the drag mark.
