Very interesting to say the least. Might want to set up a game camera and see what happens.

I am going to go with “Purple People Eater” which was discovered and brought to light by Sheb Wooley in 1958. LOL.

On a serious note maybe a rhea or other bird made these, though there is no sign of a point or claw. I am actually stumped lest these are fakes.

Looks artificial like a doodle. End of a piece of wood marking the ground and someone has pressed the end of a trowel handle into the ground with some care to make ‘toe’ prints. Altrenatively could be a childs footprint-heel next to ‘toe’ prints added at the wrong end. I doubt it is any animal known or unknown.

Sune:

You’re right. Could well be Wallace, indeed. Beware the Wererabbit!!!

Otherwise (and seriously): I agree with Loren— looks like Hare/Rabbit tracks.

If you look closely at the last photograph, it appears to be a rabbit track. The right toe, appears to extend down, and parallels the ‘foot’. This looks to actually be the rabbits right foot. It is possible that the rabbit was lame, which caused it to not put as much pressure on the foot, thus leaving a less pronounced indentations. The remaining two ‘two’ then actually are the front feet of that rabbit.

I’d say it is footprints belonging to Wallace in the process of becoming the were-rabbit.. which also fits well in with the location..

i agree that if they are indeed real prints and not fake, then they are probably rabbit tracks.

They look to me like overlapping deer tracks made by a running deer. The last view shows this most clearly. The anterior portion of the front hoof being obliterated by the hind hoof and pushing sand forward, making it appear to be seperate ‘toes’.

Not sure what the tracks (one complete, the other smeared) are of, although the following came to mind…

a tool

human hand, partial

hare track, partial

It was found near the construction of a patio in Devon, UK, and thus I imagined near a proper English garden, known for its bunnies.

But it could be anything. Although I doubt it is a tapir.

What do you mean “tracks”? These are all pictures of one “footprint” from different angles. In once case the brick has been removed, but details such as the leaf just to the left of the “footprint” show that they all show the same thing. Without more than one print, it’s really hard to justify the interpretation of this as a footprint.

For what I know, the 3 “toes” might be the three legs of a tripod that has not been folded out. The rest of the “print” then looks remarkably rectangular, consistent with it being from something man-made.

In other words, this could be a chance association of impressions that are being misinterpreted as a footprint, the way “ghost photographs” often involve the mind’s tendency to see faces everywhere.

That’s the nice interpretation. Otherwise, I’d agree with Bishop: It’s too clean to be real.
