A complete guide to how to interpret the signs that animals leave
behind. Every animal leaves some kind of trace as it passes and the
art of tracking is very much like learning to read. If you learn to
read the signs left by footprints, leftover food, droppings and
scrapes in the earth you will soon be able to tell the story of an
animal's life, packed with fascinating details and hidden meanings
This new book shows readers how to find and interpret the evidence
that animals leave behind, from a footprint, a bent blade of grass,
a soil disturbance or a chewed nut or leaf. Combined with other
signs, tracks and trails they will soon be able to build a profile
of a huge range of creatures. Readers will not only learn the
difference between a poo and a pellet; but will be able to spot the
differences between pellets regurgitated by a variety of bird
species. Written by popular nature presenter, Nick Baker, and
beautifully designed and illustrated, the book is a brand new
approach to the curious science of nature tracking.
