Inhaltsangabe

Finding wildlife is rarely easy - unless you're Steve Backshall! In DEADLY DETECTIVES Steve tells young trackers everything they need to know about the origins of tracking, what you need to become a tracker and how to do it, whether the wild world is your own back garden, ancient woodlands, the riverside or coast. He illustrates his tips with examples of his own detective work on land and in the water from tropical rainforests to the African Savannah, from the Arctic tundra to the desert. Join him as footsteps, feeding habits and even a pile of pooh reveal snow leopards, crocodiles, gators, snakes and polar bears, while closer to home you can track foxes, squirrels, badgers and birds, using exactly the same techniques.

Aus dem Klappentext

Steve shows you how to spot the fascinating clues in the natural world that can teach you so much about animal life - signs such as footprints, droppings and evidence of feeding activity. Track some animals close to home, then join him for some Deadly Detective work further afield: from the squirrels and foxes in your own back garden to snow leopards, sperm whales and spoor spiders, the world of tracking is always exciting.



There are conundrums to solve, as well as tales of the dazzling animal encounters that come from wild sleuthing.
