    Default tracking cd

    I found this cd on the web a few months ago and purchased it http://www.cafepress.com/tracker2/423461 . It is a well thought out cd with plenty of info and lots of pictures. It is mainly about american mammals and birds but most of the stuff on tracking is the same where ever you go. Its worth adding to the armoury of knowledge.
    This her web site http://www.bear-tracker.com/

    I found a great web page for tracking, I thought it was a great read.
    Don't know whether anybody else has happened across it or not, so here's the link.

    Ok the cd covers all the basics
    content:-
    The paw principle
    Tracking key- its basically a way of narrowing down tracks to a particular spieces.
    Tracking exercises
    Aging tracks
    Tracking sticks
    Plaster casting
    Activities
    Dog Vs Cat tracks
    Mystery tracks
    Tracking stories
    Gaits
    Tracking lost people

    There is a printable tracking guide and over a hundred mammals and birds are covered with photo's and drawing describing habitat, food etc etc..most are american but theres still otters,mink,fox,badger,grey's and deer
    hope that helps you make you mind up.
