Weird foot prints

After the 8" of snow we got over the weekend, I found some really strange foot prints in my back yard. I wonder if anyone of you is hunter and may know kind of animal this may be.

Since I don't have picture, so I do my best to describe them. They are about men's shoes size 7, with four distinctive sharp claw marks in the front. The distance between the prints are about two feet apart and they are in one straight line. I don't believe they are from dogs, but I cannot imagine they are bear prints. Whatever it is, it seems to walk upright and weights about 100 pounds based on the depth of the prints. The prints came out from the woods, walked up to the back of the house, then they disappeared along my basement. The prints reappear again on the other side of the house and walked back to the woods where I can see a trail of it. Whatever it is, it stopped at the top step of the basement but did not go down as there are no prints on the steps. I did hear somethng outside last night and I thought it was the wind. I don't think these are prank from kids.

Tough to guess without pic - thinking of common animals as opposed to Suskquatch - Beaver would have 6 - 7" footprint and would appear to walk upright in tracks but just how it peds.

Sounds like a Chupacabra,

I have heard they may have migrated from Puerto
Rico.

Hhmmm interesting
The ABEs can also be the product of highly sophisticated genetic manipulations by human agencies. A Chinese-Russian scientist by the name of Dr. Tsian Kanchen, has produced genetic manipulations which have created new species of electronically-crossed plant and animal organisms. Kanchen developed an electronic system whereby he can pick up the bioenergetic field of the DNA of living organisms and transfer it electronically to other living organisms. By these means he has created incredible new breeds of ducks/chickens, with physical characteristics of both species; goats/rabbits, and new breeds of plants such as corn/wheat, peanut/sunflower seeds and cucumber/watermelons. These are produced by linking the genetic data of different living organisms contained in their bioenergetic fields by means of ultra-high frequencies biological linking. If the Russians have created this technology, then without doubt the US and other powers have too. Therefore, it is quite possible that the "Chupacabras" or ABEs could have been developed by humans.

lots of animals gait lands their back foot directly behind and sometimes touching the front, which can make it appear as one big print.

How deep was the snow? any drag marks between the prints of each foot or brush marks inbetween the L and R (tail)?

Bears have spread to many areas, so don't discount that as a possibility.

My guess is a C.H.U.D., however...
