Bible June 12, 2009 Naturalist Mammal Tracks and Scat: Life-Size Tracking Guide
This is the bible for Mammal Tracking. This book is particularly helpful for intermediate and advanced trackers. That is because the book has an overwhelming amount of information. I am amazed at the breath of animal tracks and scat that Mark has encountered in such a short time. It is the most extensive collection of scat photography. The actual size of the scat or tracks is listed as well as a general range of the numbers to go along with the track or scat.
An excellent tracking book June 11, 2009 Brian J Smith (Florida, USA) I'd heard good things about this book when I purchased it, but I never expected it to be this good. Anyone with a sincere interest in tracking or naturalism would be thrilled by this book. From the novice tracker to the advanced wildlife professional, this book provides priceless details for any user.
This is hands-down the greatest tracking book I've ever seen, and I unconditionally recommend it to anyone interested in the wildlife and the outdoors.
Mark Elbroch Wins Again! May 28, 2009 L. Musick (Missoula, Motana) Another simply fantastic book by Mark Elbroch! Not only is this book thorough and useful, easy to follow and understand, but again, a beautifully bound book made to enjoy and well as to use.
Tracking March 29, 2009 Charles M. Needham (Winamac, IN USA) I first read about this book in the Fur Takers magazine and was curious so I ordered it from Amazon. The book is very well written and is full of colored pictures which is a tremendous help. I have read it completely and go back often for refference. It opened my eyes to the many things going on in nature around me and I believe it would benifit anybody with an interest in nature wether you live in a city or in the country.
Comments from one who has a lot to learn March 27, 2009 William James (Alabama) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am a novice to tracking. Primarily my goal is to learn more about the wildlife on my own property ... what all is here and what they are doing. I've learned a lot in the short time I've had this book. It would be helpful if there were photos of the actual animals; and, very, very helpful if there were lots more comparative analysis between similiar tracks, etc., like the one comparing dog tracks versus coyote tracks ... much like in National Geographic's Complete Birds of North America, where they cross reference birds of similar appearance (a very helpful feature).
