Can I tell the difference between a wolf track and a dog track?
A dog has five pads on each foot. If you look at a dog (or fox or coyote) track in soft ground or in sand, the centre of the track comes up to a point.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that a wolf has six pads on each foot. The sixth pad is in the centre of the foot, so the centre of the track is pressed down. Is this correct?

Wolf tracks are the same as dog tracks. They might be a bit bigger so they can move through the snow easier but if you saw a St. Bernard track next to a wolf track, you probably couldn't tell the difference.

wolves are way larger than the largest coyote! So the tracks would be larger, that's about it! Look at any wolfish looking dog, malamute, husky, German shepherd, that's about what both will look like, just a size difference!
