Tracking Wild Animals At Breakheart Part Two

This program will take us outside to find and identify animal tracks. If there is snow, we may be lucky enough to discover the trails of coyote, fisher, deer, otter and other wild animals normally associated with the distant wilderness, but which in recent years have taken up residence in Breakheart and other metropolitan parks. In the event of lack of snow, we will search for other signs of animal presence, such as scat, digs, feeding sign, burrows as well as tracks in mud along the Saugus River. About 2 miles at most will be covered at a slow pace; dress accordingly with warm clothes and snow/waterproof boots. David Brown, is a tracker-naturalist of long experience with a lifelong attachment to Breakheart. For additional information, call: 781-710-3129 or email: breakheart1@aol.com
