Arms ... or paws? This print seen yesterday at the Sandstone Bluffs, El Malpais Nat'l Conservation Area.

Not a cat. Big dog of some kind. Cats don't leave claw marks and have a double lobe in font of the heel pad. This ones a single lobe.

Large dog
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Way too big for coyote. Probably just someone's dog they had out for a walk unless you have wolves in the area, then wolf is a maybe.
yeah on second look... dog.

Between the Malpais South of Grants, and the Southwest end by Datil/Pietown, run some of the best fed coyotes in the state!
We've had 'em run almost 175 pounds in the last dog hunt I got roped into teaming up on. Not like a Great Dane, more like a freakishly buff 'yote.There's a rumor that somebody bred one of those Mexican Wolves with a CoyDog, and just from the size of a few that I've seen, it might be true.
If it's not a Coyote print; it's a Golden Retriever. A fat one.
Have you SEEN some of the Prairie Singers over there?

175 pound coyotes? No. 60, regardless of where, you are is a big 'yote.

You'll find plenty of 60 pounders around Melrose, or west around Yeso, maybe near Jal near all the drilling.
Cruise the Malpais; find Grants & go South- ya can't miss it. Or start in Mule Creek (down by Glenwood/Bayard & a bit south), & head up to Magdalena. Keep an eye out, there's some biggun's yonder!
That's one of them there Chupacabras.
A Pureto Rican legend translocated to Mexico by The X Files, and now running around NM. Yeah, that's it.
Large Canid, can't get closer than that. Wolf, Coyote, Dog are the possibilities.
I'll tell anyone who believes me that it is a canine of some sort, leaving out the "dog" part. Yes, it could have been a dog, being 50 yards from the parking lot, as you say it is possible. The prints were close-spaced but there were newer boot prints near them.
El Malpais is in the western, almost central area of New Mexico. I think. Almost wish I was driving back the same way.
But I'm headed north next, for some camping in Zion N.P.
