Whose track is it? Whose dropping? Which animal left this tuft of hair? and what did I just glimpse? Rob’s advice on fieldcraft is distilled from his vast experience (he has conducted surveys of mink, otters and water voles in Britain). No naturalist Holmes can be without it. ‘Anyone with a passion for mammals will enjoy this easy-to-read book.’ - Natural World

Strengths:
Easy to read, well laid out.
Weaknesses:
Not as indepth as some, only black and white line drawings.
An excellent starting point for those who want to get to grips with identifying the signs and clues that mammals leave behind in their day to day activities.
Easy to read, and illustrated with black and white illustrations.
Covers most British species of mammal.
A recommended title and good value for money.
