With full-color photographs illustrating every nuance, the author makes these essential outdoor skills as easy as possible, and profiles more than twenty different animals and detailing their basic characteristics, tracks, habitat, diet, behaviors, and common relatives.

Tracking animals is the original forensic science. Following the same techniques taught in forensic science, you'll learn to recognize clues and then piece together a story about how they came to be. This informative book is the perfect guide for anyone interested in honing their skills of studying animals and reading their tracks. Tracking and Reading Sign includes profiles of dozens of animals, including the New World Moose, American Elk, Eastern Cottontail Rabbit, Brown Bear, Gray Fox, White-tailed Deer. Each profile lists geographic range, habitat and basic characteristics.
