ANIMALS & their TRACKS
with photos by Teddy Miller
Tracks are like clues to a great puzzle. They teach us who’s around and give insights into how animals move across the land. If you’re excited about wildlife and learning how to track them, this digital book is just for you. Take a flip through and brush up on your tracking knowledge before your next hike.

No claw marks? It’s probably a bobcat because their claws are retractable
