/u/KathleenWynne, you stated that you would answer a question a day but looking at your reddit user history, you have only answered 2 further questions.

thanks for doing this AMA. I have been a great fan of Tom Brown for years and have a fair amount of experience in survival techniques and edible/medinals, and foraging in general.

I just started honing my tracking skills last year. I recently moved to a 20ac parcel of land in Ontario. The parcel runs through a corridor that runs up to one of the largest wetlands in the Province. It goes without saying, that there is plenty of activity in my backyard.

Over the past year, I've learnt so much by going out and finding a track - twig snaps, snared fur, soil imprints, disturbed vegetation. One day, I was tracking a deer and ended up doubling up on my tracks, found out she was watching me :)

I'm hoping you can impart any practical advice on tracking. I haven't quite found my AHA! moment, where it all clicks, but I feel like I am getting close.

thanks again!

edit i have to ask a question, apparently.
