Um... anyone know what kind of animal left these prints in the snow?

AHH! My sides!
Actual answer? Something that hops, and has a tail.
I mean rabbits and hares do have tails, so you’re not wrong - but you’re wrong ;)
I think it’s actually from a local fruit
Coctopus
A rabbit.
Thank you. How the fuck was this unanswered for ten hours?
When a rabbit runs they place their front paws next to each other (the "balls" in the image) and their hind legs are placed in front and in-between their front paws. Because the hind paws are so long and the rabbit is running at high speed they leave a long impression in the snow (the "shaft" in the image). The rabbit was running away from our point of view.
Legit answer:
Wallaby?
It's like a small kangaroo. Would be hopping towards the camera. Tail and two legs.
It's a rabbit/hare. Kangaroos either walk (leaving four distinct foot prints) or hop (leaving two).

I just saw the same prints in Japan. We figured they were rabbit prints.
I live for these threads. Thank you internet strangers.
Just Dave doing the worm again.
Looks like somebody’s bird got loose
It’s not Mara, he’s got wheels.
