Animal Tracking – Field Biology
Yesterday, in my field biology class, we learnt how to identify and classify animal tracks. The snow was melting, so it was not ideal conditions, but we still managed to identify footprints belonging to several deer, one raccoon and a few squirrels! To practice our GPS skills and in preparation for our final presentation for the class, which will consist on a thorough overview of our site, we marked the specific locations in which we saw the footprints in our GPS unit. It was quite fun to go on a walk after all our pre-thanksgiving break exams!
