Overnight Visitor Leaves Behind Muddy Finger Prints

I had another visit at my home yesterday from my big hairy friends. They left a couple muddy finger prints on top of the dog food tub and took some dog food to boot.





 
Below are pictures of the finger prints.

They also helped themselves to some dog food. I always make sure the surface of the dog food is level. In the below pictures you can see where they scooped some hand fulls out.

      I could try to lift them using tape since they are muddy.

    Ha, ha! They probably eat the dog food like we eat snacks! Have you ever considered keeping the dog food inside, so they don't have access to it? Or is this part of your effort to study them closer to home?

      I leave the dog food out so they can get to it.

    Wow Scott, that's great. I've been meaning to ask, Do they put the lid back when they're finished?

      Yes, they snap the lid back on, I have several DVR recordings of them unsnapping the lid, getting food, then snapping it back.

      So interesting...I wish there was someplace you could hide so you could see them but I guess they're too smart for that.

    Thanks to you Scott, Purina may market Squatch-friendly Dog Food. "If it's good enough for Patty, it's great for your Puppy!" or "Sasquatches will risk discovery by traveling miles through suburban neighborhoods just to be nourished on our dog food...... complete with frame #352 of the PG film. Funny thing is, people will buy it and chuckle because Sasquatch sells! We had a billboard up here in PA advertising for Matson Insurance - It simply said: "We care if you hit a Sasquatch." Bojangles chicken in Charleston, SC had frame #352 of Patty with the word "Legendary" in a squatchy font written across it. For a so-called undiscovered species, Sasquatch is pretty famous.

    What would happen if you placed a small audio recorder under the dog food by a few inches , think they would still grab some
