Subject: What Is Tracking Really? Front vs Hind Deer Tracks + Forest Tracking

Hey!


I just published a new video about tracking that shares some really great tips on how to apply critical observation skills in order to know what’s happening with animals in the forest.


Click here to check it out!


Do you know what these deer tracks are telling you?

One of the most important things I ever learned about tracking is how to expand beyond just looking at tracks on the ground.


If you’ve ever wanted to track animals in the forest then you’ve probably noticed their footprints are not always the easiest things to find!!


That’s why it’s so important to practice applying our tracking skills with other less obvious signs and indicators in order to build out a more complete understanding of the landscape.


A few things we’ll cover:


  • What is an expanded definition of tracking?

  • How to tell front vs hind deer tracks with trail analysis

  • How developing tracking skills will massively transform your experience in nature.

  • Demonstration of applied “tracker’s logic” to interpret the history and ecology of a forest through observation.

Enjoy!
