I wanna say bear (because wolves aren't as common in region 8 ), though the claws don't look quite as long as I would think they should on a bear, and the tapering of the paw doesn't look quite bear..keep in mind, on the one pic you can see the one part of the toe/nail is missing: found in region 8-08..

I'd say human. It's hard to tell 'cause there's a glove on it, but compared to the bear paw, it's about the right size. :shock:

Hmm it doesn't seem to me that the claws extend far enough away from the paw for it to be a griz, but you would know better than me..

all toes in front of the pad makes it a small griz I would say as well

I think it a griz cub as well,griz claws come to a point when viewed from the side but viewed straight on come to a wider T, black bear claws come to a point both ways.

- spacer to show edge of foot or to make other elements stay in place
T Toe pad
. light claw impression
" heavy or deep claw impression
H or P Heel Pad inpression

WILD canine

. T-T.
T-H-T
H H H
H -- H

Balanced foot ends of middle toes (T) parallel and perpendicular to center line drawn along long axis of foot. Same with outer toes. Heel pad triangular with two lobes at rear of pad (H). Wolf 3.5 inches wide or wider and 4.5 inches long or longer. Coyotes tracks are half the size of adult wolf tracks.

Domestic canines normally do not have a balanced foot and track sizes can be literally from large rat to wolf size

Black Bear five toes show and may have small imprints of claw tips a short distance in front of toes. toes are placed on a line approximately
perpendicular to a line drawn through the central axis of the foot. Average adult front foot 4inches wide (+/- width of your palm)

Grizzly
Again five toes but placed on a curved line that makes a distinct angle with line along central axis of the foot. Both toes
and rear of pad are at a small but distinct angle to the center line of the foot. This angle is dramatically exaggerated on
this illustration. Claw marks are distinct and are at some distance (1.5 to 2 inches from ends of toes) Front foot is more or less 5.5 to 6 inches wide or wider. A quick measure is width of your hand with the thumb extended.

On a grizzly bear cub the claws are not long at a young age..
