Description

Tracks and Trailcraft covers the writer's study of fossil remains of remote ages to the revealing tracks as the mute autobiographies of living creatures today. He tells how to read nature's sign language written in mud, brush, and even in water and sky. A track does not merely indicate identity and direction. It may tell the sex of the animal,; whether it is passing leisurely or fleeing danger; if it is well or wounded, seeking a mate or pursuing a victim; if its mood is bored, frightened, belligerent, or amorous. In addition, the author has devoted separate chapters to various tracking games and to methods of reporducing tracks. 381/Hardbound/Illustrations
