Mammals of Southern Africa and Their Tracks and Signs

Tracking is a much-loved subject that attracts at least some of the attention of almost every bush-goer who ventures into the wild places of southern Africa. The ability to accurately read difficult, partial or little-seen signs left in the soil or sand is rare and largely the domain of professionals. However, by making use of a comprehensive guide, anyone who applies him- or herself can begin to decipher these natural hieroglyphs etched on the ground.

Lee Gutteridge, the author of this volume, is particularly skilled in both tracking and in conveying tracking and naturalist information in a way that’s easy to learn. Here, he uses Louis Liebenberg’s highly accurate sketches of animal tracks, showing all the details one would find in a perfect example of the spoor, combined with a wide selection of extremely varied photographs that explain the difficult truth of the matter, and represent what you are most likely to actually see in the many different substrates where the animals walk.
