Animal Tracking
11/07/2009 Saturday 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Many people who frequent this campus don't know that they share this hillside with all kinds of animals. The raccoons are out every night, the coyotes hunt the meadows, even the mountain lion & bobcat quietly move through in the early morning. And of course the deer are everywhere! All these animals leave obvious signs of their presence if you know what to look for. Skilled trackers can follow tracks like a bloodhound follows a scent or determine the age, weight, and mood of an animal from looking at a single track. Bring water, lunch, notebook and a pen, hiking shoes, daypack & sunscreen. We explore campus as well as drive a short distance from campus as part of this workshop.
