Each animal’s identifying information includes a description of how the animal moves, description of the animal’s head and feet, and a physical description and illustration of the tracks.

PISTES Il n’est pas question de se déplacer en terrain découvert pour le pékan et il est aussi habile au sol que dans les arbres quand il chasse. Il est fascinant d’observer le saut d’un pékan qui atterrit dans la neige. La plupart de ses pistes mèneront à des trous, des amas de roches ou des cavités d’arbre.

Galop lent à trois temps

Foulée de 14,6 à 76,2 cm

Longueur du groupe d’empreintes de 30,5 à 66 cm

Galop

Foulée de 38,1 à 78,7 cm

Longueur du groupe d’empreintes de 78,7 cm à 1,01 m Galop lent à deux temps Foulée de 43,2 cm à 2 m et largeur de la piste de 7,6 à 14 cm

Longueur du groupe d’empreintes de 15,2 à 33 cm Pas Foulée de 17,8 à 29,2 cm et largeur de la piste de 12,7 à 16,5 cm

Trot Foulée de 34,3 à 48,3 cm et largeur de la piste de 7,6 à 12,4 cm

EXCRÉMENTS

Il ne s’embarrasse pas de toujours emprunter un sentier déjà existant et préfère souvent en faire un nouveau. Il possède lui aussi de larges pieds qui font comme des raquettes dans la neige. Il est très curieux et se déplace généralement avec le galop lent à trois temps. Dans la neige, il usera plutôt du galop lent à deux temps ou ira au pas. Tu peux même trouver la trace entière de son corps dans la neige lorsqu’il bondit d’un arbre.

Attention à ne pas confondre les empreintes du pékan avec celles de la loutre de rivière.

Pattes antérieures Moyennes, plantigrades et asymétriques à 5 doigts dont le doigt 1 est plus petit et ne s’imprime pas tou jours. L’espace libre entre doigts et coussinets est rempli de poils qui brouillent souvent l’empreinte. Les griffes semi-rétractiles peuvent s’imprimer sur le sol.

5,4 à 9,8 cm longueur x 4,8 à 10,8 cm largeur

Pattes postérieures Moyennes, plantigrades et asymétriques à 5 doigts dont le doigt 1 est plus petit et ne s’imprime pas toujours.

Pékan

Les pékans défèquent régulièrement dans des endroits surélevés et dans des latrines, mais très rarement dans les sentiers comme le fait plutôt la martre d’Amérique. Ils iront plutôt faire leurs besoins dans les sentiers des autres animaux. Ils laisseront une bonne quantité d’excréments près de leurs abris et on peut facilement les identifier de cette façon. Les crottes plutôt allongées ont les bouts effilés, mais l’appa rence peut varier selon l’alimentation de l’animal. On peut y retrouver des fragments d’os et de poils. Les pékans vont également laisser de l’urine et des marques olfactives de leurs glandes anales sur leur chemin et dans les buissons. Diamètre 0,5 à 1,9 cm Longueur 5,1 à 17,8 cm

L’espace libre entre doigts et coussinets est rempli de poils qui brouillent souvent l’empreinte. Les griffes semirétractiles peuvent s’imprimer sur le sol. Les pattes posté rieures sont plus asymétriques que les pattes antérieures.
