About
Featuring all-new spoor drawings, some 200 new photographs and an extra 35 species, this fully revised and updated edition of the ever-popular Tracker Manual is packed with the latest on the art of tracking. Based on information developed by some of southern Africa’s best traditional trackers, Tracker Manual gives even more guidance on how to identify the spoor of some 190 animal species. Individual chapters cover carnivores, large mammals, antelopes, small mammals, primates, hares and rodents, amphibians and reptiles, birds and insects. Each account contains:
- Simple, bulleted text on key points of each animal’s tracks
- Clear, accurate track drawings
- Numerous informative photographs, sometimes annotated
- A list of similar tracks (where applicable), to avoid misidentification.
An instructive introduction describes the science of tracking and outlines what to look for in the field, while a quick-reference table compares tracks that are easily confused. This detailed and richly illustrated manual to the region’s most common animal tracks and signs will prove invaluable in the field.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall
What do Michael Jackson, the evil queen from Snow White and Alice in Wonderland all have in common. Nope, only 2 of the 3 featured in Disney movies, and only one of them could do the Moonwalk. Sure, maybe all of them were a little weird or creepy in their own way, but that's not it either.
Give up? Each of them had a different way of dealing with a mirror. Michael chose to look at the man in his, the evil queen used hers to find 'the fairest of them all' and poor old Alice, well she kept falling through the dang things.
Whatever your relationship with a mirror, make sure it's a stylish one, like the one we have a deal on today from Arts Décoratifs.
