Hey hunters, what book would you recommend for studying up on animal tracks? I know that experience is the best teacher but I have no one to show me the ropes.

I've gone with a few guys on truck hunting (which is not my thing) and I've learned how to gut, but now I'd like to pack up my stuff and walk into the bush tracking my game.

I've got the gear, knives, guns, etc, but I don't know how to read the tracks, the land on the migration, diet of game animals, that kind of shit.

Any good books I can read before next hunting season?

Lower heel pad has 3 lobes which means it's feline and not canine. Also, I'm not seeing claw prints.

Your state dept of fish and game or dept of natural resources often has free publications on native wildlife I'd give that a look.
