About this ebook
A great primer on animal tracks from a traditional skills instructor and creator of a popular animal tracks poster/guide.
This short field guide is intended to offer various strategies and tips rarely seen in related books. The same tips are among the ones used in author's courses.
Images are taken from author's 10 000+ photos of animal tracks and sign.
There is not any one book that can offer a person a full resource for animal tracking--as it would take volumes of books. Getting out there with a little guidance is one's best teacher!
Happy Track'n!
