Went on the rail road tracks and spotted tracks coming from the side of the trail heading into the woods. Used the tracking key in the book Mammal Tracks and Sign of the North East to decipher what animal created the tracks.
Observations:
- 5 toes on the front track
- 4 toes on the rear track
- Less than 1/2 in. wide
- Tracks are oblong shaped
- Toes are tightly held together
- Tracks were located in swampy woods in areas of dense shrubbery
