hoofprintEtymologyFrom hoof + print.nounThe mark of a hoof.“Perhaps, like us, he may journey for a fortnight, and see not so much as the hoof-print of a deer; in the spring, not even a prairie-hen is to be had. Yet, to compensate him for this unlooked-for deficiency of game he will find himself beset with 'warmints' innumerable.”
