Winter Wildlife Tracking
Saturday, February 10, 2018
10:00am - 4:00pm
Join field naturalist Sophie Mazowita for a full-day immersion in tracking and trailing wildlife in winter. We'll start with an indoor presentation on the basics of track and sign ID, interpreting gaits and behavior, and understanding winter wildlife ecology and habitat. From there we'll head out to explore the forests, brook, and beaver ponds to find out who, why, when, and where wildlife is on the landscape. We will look to get on the trail of a fisher, fox, coyote, or bobcat and become intimately acquainted with its story as we walk in its footsteps. Sophie is an avid wildlife tracker and coordinator of the Burlington Mammal Tracking Project. She is a program director at Crow's Path Field School in Burlington and was formerly Education Manager at Green Mountain Audubon Center. She has a deep appreciation for tracking as a skill set and framework to foster connection with the land and its wild inhabitants.
