Hi Folks,
I found this rock near Roosevelt Lake, Arizona a few days ago. The impression in it appears to be a paw print from a large cat, possibly a mountain lion with a missing toe. It could be four toes though, depending on how you look at it. It measures 2" High X 3" Wide...Thanks in advance for your input.

It's possible. This print was found in Argentina, estimated age, 50,00 years old. Same sabre tooth cat as those found in La Brea tar pits in California. Cool find! fossil cat track.png
