Summary: "Tracks and Tracking" by Josef Brunner is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a detailed guide for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts, focusing on the art and science of tracking various game animals, particularly hoofed and predaceous animals in North America. Brunner emphasizes the importance of understanding animal tracks, trails, and signs to improve hunting success and ethical practices in the wilderness. The opening of the book begins with a foreword explaining the significance of tracking in hunting, highlighting that those who can interpret tracks experience greater success than those who rely solely on luck. Brunner shares his experiences in the outdoors, illustrating how lack of knowledge can lead to unsuccessful hunts. He outlines the basic principles of tracking, emphasizing the different anatomical features and movement patterns of several animals, like deer and bears, which are crucial for recognizing tracks in various terrains and conditions. The text indicates that this is just an introduction to the more detailed explorations and methodologies that will follow in subsequent chapters, setting the stage for a comprehensive study of tracking wildlife.
