Wildlife & Tracking Courses
Wildlife Tracking
Wildlife tracking can be divided into track and sign identification and trailing or following the animals using the tracks and sign they leave behind. These two disciplines are two sides of the same coin and combined with knowledge of animal behaviour and identification, lead to tracking competence. We are also able to offer evaluations in both track and sign and trailing through CyberTracker Conservation the world standard in assessing the ability of wildlife trackers.
These tracking programmes combine three days of workshop training followed immediately by a CyberTracker evaluation. we offer separately both track and sign and trailing programmes
A wildlife track and sign identification intensive programme which also covers identification of mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians through field marks and vocalisations. This programme leads to a Customised Qualification accredited by the NCFE
The International Standard For Wildlife Tracking. The evaluations are a transparent, balanced and accurate assessment of a tracker’s ability in both track and sign identification and trailing or following the animals.
Shorter Track & Sign and Trailing workshops from one to three days. These cover both general concepts and also can be tailored to specific groups of animals and subjects areas.
This is a 10 day intensive programme (spread over 4 months) covering the science and art of following and more importantly, finding animals using their tracks as a guide. We fully expect to catch up with the animals we are following!
