Mammal Tracks and Scat: Life-Size Tracking Guide

Mammal Tracks and Scat: Life-Size Tracking Guide

This handy waterproof field guide uses a novel three-step process to identify tracks and scat of 29 different animals that are commonly encountered in the field. First, a movement pattern is determined (walker, trotter, hopper, waddler or bounder). Then, the group is identified (i.e., rodent or cat family). Finally, the species is pinpointed using clues under the heading “species differences.” For scat, a shape is identified (round or cylinder). Then the categories are divided into more detailed shapes for easy identification in the field.
