Animal Tracks & Signs

"The tracks and signs book is ideal for sorting out half-eaten nuts, scratched bark, pellets, droppings and foot prints found on a country walk...well illustrated, comprehensive, and excellent value for money." Birds

"The real value of this book lies in the wealth of behavioral and ecological information given in the abundant text. For example, you can find out what sort of animal is likely to be breaking apart wasps' nests, explanations of patterns produced by different quadrupeds walking and running, and why hedgehog droppings are so variable." Bulletin of British Ecological Society

"A seminal work... This book more than any other set me on my own exploration of tracking" Ray Mears, wilderness and survival expert
