Track & Sign Identification

In recent years, there has been an explosion in the number of resources relating to the correct identification of sign that animals leave of their presence.  This is not just true of information about mammals but also about birds, reptiles, amphibians and insects.

To date, our efforts at this website have gone more toward Trailing since detailed guidance about it has been harder to come by.  Please bear with us as we work to include more fully information about Track & Sign Identification and ideas for how to study it.

In the meantime, please consider the suggested resources, especially:

• CyberTracker evaluations for Track & Sign Identification, which are the premier field trainings
• Jonah Evans' extremely informative and well-organized website, Nature Tracking
• The excellent peer-to-peer mentoring resource that is iNaturalist.org
