Customer Reviews

Has anyone actually read this book?

Agreed, the book could benefit from good photos, and the publisher should never have let it reach print without them, but if you're looking for a factual reference to learning how to track wildlife, there's not one in print that's more comprehensive than The Encyclopedia of Tracks and Scats. Expert trackers will all tell you that beginners look for tracks, while experts read sign - sign that cannot be adequately illustrated in either a photo or a drawing. If you want a comic book, try Marvel or DC; if you want a hardcore tracking reference, this is the book for you.
