Webinar 1: Winter Track & Trail Identification
Wednesday, January 28, 7–8:30 p.m.
Presenter: Sophie Mazowita, Tracking Connections
Winter offers a unique opportunity to understand how wildlife use the landscape. In this introductory webinar, participants will learn how to identify common wildlife tracks and trails found in snow and soft ground, and how to interpret what they reveal about animal movement, behavior, and habitat use. We’ll explore track patterns, gait, and other signs that help tell the story of which animals are moving through the woods and how they navigate the landscape in winter.
Designed for landowners, and anyone curious about wildlife in their woods, this session will build foundational tracking skills and introduce how observations made in winter can inform future stewardship decisions. No prior tracking experience is required.
