Tracking lures us on an amazing journey into the world of nature, and encourages us to open all of our senses to its subtle clues hidden everywhere.
Here we teach you to track animals as an interpretive art--one that sharpens our awareness of nature and deepens our understanding of our own behavior. The same routines that make for success in tracking can easily translate to the modern world, enhancing the quality of our lives.
Trackers speak a language which is based not only on a thorough knowledge of tracks, trails and sign, but also on a rich grounding in the natural history, anatomy, and behavior characteristics of animals and the ethnobotany of plants.
The Kamana Naturalist Training Program is an amazing program for those wanting to track. It gives the essential background for building sensory awareness and knowledge of land needed to track animals.
