    TRACKS: Sorting Fox from Dog

    Another thing you can keep the two seperated from is the overall shape. The fox looks like a waterdroplet (as someone said, narrower). And the domestic dog has a cumulus cloud shape. This sometimes also comes in handy when you only have a depression. And the tracks are different of course...

    Cold Case NEW

    Ah, jumping in late. Nice one! What I often notice is you guys name animals like muntjack and mink, and each time I raise an eyebrow. Here in Netherlands we have imported animals in the wild, but not yet as many and widely spread as you have in the UK. I think it makes it easier for us, but...

    Ordering problems Halfpenny's video

    I received the DVD set, pfew. Although it had the same type of scratches this one played fine. Made backups immediately so I will be save in the future and don't need replacement... Haven't watched it entirely yet but did some browsing over it and it looks like interesting information. In the...

    Cold Case - Who Killed "Cock Robin"? Graphic Image

    Excuse me being Dutch and not sure about the name, but my best guess is a sparrowhawk (male). The prey is a greenfinch. I think as he took the prey with him he got hungry beaks to fill.

    Deer!!

    Just be out there so you get more events like this, they're the best teacher :) And for cold rainy days a book or two... Tom Browns' Field Guide to Nature Observation and Tracking and Jon Youngs' Animal Tracking Basics for example... A good guide for signs will also help (like Preben Bangs')...

    Mr. Halfpenny mailed me back that he will send me an entire new set of DVD's. So I'll assume it will be all OK in the end :)

    Thank you for your reply. That is exactly what I did. After the first email when I just thought one disk was missing I got a reply in 2,5 hours. But after that when I found out about the mislabeling and the scratched disk I also sent an email describing those but I did not get a reply at all...

    Ordering problems Halfpenny's video

    Hello Forum, For a while I had the website of Dr. Halfpenny bookmarked as I had an interest in buying the video he offers. http://www.tracknature.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=IS0034&Product_Code=VMT&Category_Code=VIDEOS At 80$ not really cheap, and for our little family quite...

    Novice tracking book please

    Its not a bad book but imho its focusing a bit too much on prints alone. Although most people will think thats the most sign of wild you'll see out there its actually the least. And following tracks without clear prints for a beginner is quite hard. Other sign such as scat, feeding, sleeping...

    Novice tracking book please

    That is the same as the Preben Bang and Preben Dahlstrom book, just with a foreword by Ray Mears if I'm not mistaken... Just so to prevent that anyone orders both ...
