Trade Review“Jonathan Poppele has created a terrific little resource here on some of the most common animals in the region that a tracker might be interested in. There are great details about track ID, as well as some bigger picture concepts in how to learn track ID, as well as animal gait interpretation. An inspired naturalist will be grateful to have this in your backpack.” —Marcus Reynerson, Evaluator at Tracker Certification North America and Lead Instructor at Wilderness Awareness School
