ANIMAL TRACKING

What animal made that track? Who left that sign on my driveway? Ever wonder what animals live around you that you might not be aware of? Or you know a little about the animals in your neighborhood and you would like to learn more. Have fun discovering the many mysteries of the creatures that inhabit nature. An animal tracking class by Natural Awareness Tracking School will enjoyably increase your outdoor awareness and ability to find and interpret tracks, scat and signs left behind by mammals, amphibians, reptiles and birds.

All classes and field trips are customized for your group’s interests to facilitate better understanding and appreciation of the environment by learning how to identify animal families by their signs and prints. Each class involves professional classroom presentations from instructors’ extensive library of animal track and sign images in power point form and casts of real tracks. No tracking class is complete without assisted outdoor experiences of first-hand learning from the true teachers: the animals and their own tracks and sign.

There are lots of books out there on track and sign identification, but since the animals don’t read them, they do whatever they want. The fun, mystery and learning occurs in seeking out and exploring these stories through your own natural awareness.

Please contact us about setting up a learning experience for you and your group. Groups that have enjoyed Natural Awareness Tracking School classes include:

In the future this site will have resources available to assist you in determining the maker of a track you found. Until then, please contact us or email us a picture of the track or sign that you have a questions about.
