can you point me to an internet site for animal track identification?

13. We're up to 8 inches of snow just north of the Twin Cities.

Forty-five mintes north they have more han a foot of new snow.

In addition to the wolves, we have bobcats, fishers, marten, river otters, snowshoe hare, and of course beaver.

The turkeys are about an hour south of our place but are moving north. They are eastern wild turkeys. Biologists did not think they could survive as far north as they have migrated, but they have adapted to eating aspen buds like the ruffed grouse do. They don't need acorns to survive.

What exactly is a cat squirrel? We have gray squirrels in the Twin Cities and red (fox) squirrels up north.

We do not have many feral hogs. I grew up in hog farming country in southern Minnesota. The idea of feral hogs scare the hell out of the pork producers. Most of the hog production is in confinement operations so maybe the cold winters don't allow the feral hogs to live through a winter.

The feral cats up here average 9 months of age, so hey have it tough.
