This Introduction to Tracking is a day devoted
to the art of animal tracking. Whether you want to brush up
on skills or are a complete novice this will be a course to
remember. Introduction to Tracking will cover all of the basics
as well as give you plenty to work on in your own time. Covering
aspects of animal identification, movement, track aging, feeding
and scent signs as well as animal habits.
Based in a beautiful woodland on Dartmoor at this wonderful
time of year, immerse yourself in the dappled light and hunt
for signs of our fellow wild creatures.
The course will be taught by artist and naturalist Martin
Prothero, whose professional background requires him to spend
considerable time outdoors interpreting the tracks, signs and
language of animals. His artist residencies and projects have
gained him an international reputation as a skilled outdoorsman
and a passionate advocate for the natural world.
There will be plenty of time to walk and test your new found
skills as well as meet and discuss your findings with like-minded
people.
