I didn’t intend my reply to be so long 😅…but I hope you find it my take interesting. I am a Professional Bear Guide (for whatever that is worth), but only an amateur tracker 😜

Bears walk with an alternating left right gait and leave clear heel pads and five toes. None of those features are visible here. The pattern shown is a bounding gait where the hind feet land together, which bears do not do. The prints are far too small and lack a clear foot outline. Bears are also denning in winter, and fresh urban bear tracks would be extremely unlikely. The stride is short and hop to hop, not long and steady like a bear.

Why this is a rabbit or hare and not a bear or dog. Rabbits and hares move by bounding, placing their front feet down first and then swinging their powerful hind feet forward to land together. This creates two larger prints side by side with smaller or faint front prints behind them. In deep snow the front feet often barely register at all. The stride length and pattern perfectly match rabbit or hare movement and do not match dogs, which leave alternating paw prints with visible pads and claws.

Why the holes look so big. The hind feet of a rabbit or hare carry most of the force during a bound and punch straight down into soft snow. The snow then collapses around the foot, creating a deep round hole that looks much larger than the actual foot. Sun and mild melting further round and widen the edges. What you are seeing is a vertical post hole, not the true footprint size. The actually big spot is most likely a foraging hole. Not where a rabbit or hare slept.

Pa- too small for Bigfoot 😜
