Gain a whole new awareness of the natural world! Discover the fascinating world of animal tracks and signs. Wildlife tracking skills enhance outdoor experiences, and can be used to contribute to research & conservation. Learn how to identify the footprints of common species and the signs of large carnivores. Tracking skills reduce the risks of dangerous wildlife encounters; enable you to read the landscape to solve mysteries like what creature may have raided your garden; and allow you to find animals hidden on the landscape by following the subtle clues they leave behind. Animal tracking is a vital skill for deepening connections to nature, so that we can all be better stewards of wild places and species for future generations.Introduction to Wildlife Tracking
