The Next Step in Winter Wildlife Tracking

Past event
Feb 24, 2019, 9 AM to 4 PM

Feb 24, 2019, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM
Join field naturalist Sophie Mazowita at the Green Mountain Audubon Center in Huntington Vermont for a full-day immersion in tracking and trailing wildlife in winter. This program is aimed at participants already holding a basic knowledge in track and sign identification. Beginner trackers are welcome to come as long as you are ready to take a deep dive into the tracking world right away.
We'll start with an indoor presentation to populate a list of species we might encounter on the winter landscape, reviewing their tracks, gaits, habitat, and associated sign. From there we'll head out to explore the forests, brook, and beaver and peeper 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.
