How can I differentiate the difference between the footprints of a dog and a feline in the wild? For example, a wolf or a mountain lion?

You mean, in other words, how can you tell if what you see was caused by a dog or a cat?

The footprint specifically. Canines and felines have some distinct differences in their foot pad.

I’ll see if I can find something about that. There’s some information about determining if a track is left by a canine or feline, but not the very specifics about foot pads, unfortunately.
assistant
Tell me what you find out.
