    Animal tracks are imprints left on soil, snow, or mud that show where an animal has walked. Hunters and naturalists can use tracks to identify animals in an area. Books are used to identify different tracks, which may vary depending on the animal's weight and the material it walked on. Some tracks can become fossilized over millions of years, allowing scientists to see dinosaur tracks in rock formations.

    Animal track

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    For the album, "Animal Tracks", by The Animals, see Animal Tracks (UK album) and Animal Tracks (U.S. album).

    Bird tracks in snow.

    Animal tracks are the imprints left behind in soil, snow, mud, or other ground surfaces that an animal walks across. Animal tracks are used by hunters intracking their prey and by naturalists to identify animals living in a given area. Books are commonly used to identify animal tracks, which may look different based on the weight of the particular animal and the type of strata in which they are made. Tracks can be fossilized over millions of years. It is for this reason we are able to see fossilized dinosaur tracks in some types of rock formations. These types of fossils are called trace fossils since they are a trace of an animal left behind rather than the animal itself.
