HOW TO TRACK WILD ANIMALS
Wild animals like raccoons, opossums, squirrels, stray cats, etc., usually venture into human settlements in search of food, shelter, and maybe mating partners. While some of these animals are harmless, others are very destructive and will cause a lot of damage to your property. Different wild animals cause different types of damage. Therefore, it’s very important to know the exact kind of animal visiting your property, as this will help you tackle the problem effectively. These wild animals are very stealthy – you may not see them come in or go out of your property. Also, most of them move around only at night. However, you can track them by using certain identification guides and tracking techniques. Let’s take a look at some of these techniques.

Examine the Tracks
The paw prints on the ground will give you a hint on the kind of animal visiting your property. If you don’t have hard or rocky ground, you should be able to see the animal’s paw prints clearly. If you examine your property and discover that a wild animal keeps visiting the same location, just sprinkle a handful of flour over the ground. This will make the animal's paw prints more visible.

Animals have distinctive paw prints. You can browse the internet to see what these paw prints look like. Then compare the paw prints you found on your property to the images you saw on the internet. This will help you determine what kind of animal you’re dealing with. If the prints resemble that of a cat, then you may likely be dealing with big cats like a cougar or bobcat. Dog prints could mean that you have a wolf, fox, or coyote visiting your property. Deer and rabbits also have unique paw prints.

To make things easier, just focus on learning about the footprints of wildlife that’s mostly found in your area.

Examine Animal Droppings
This step is important when tracking wild animals. Animals will hardly visit your property without leaving some feces or urine behind. If you can find the droppings of the intruding wild animal and examine it properly, you’ll be able to identify what kind it is. Most wild animals are territorial in nature and use their feces or urine to mark out their terrain, so you’ll most likely find their droppings in conspicuous places. It’s important to note that wildlife droppings carry different kinds of diseases that can affect humans. So make sure you wear rubber gloves before handling it.

Tracking Wild Animals with Technology
Wildlife tracking has gone beyond following a wild animal and observing its movement and habits. These days, scientists use new technologies to determine how wild animals move and interact in their natural environment. Animals can be tracked with technology in the following ways:

Radio Tracking
With radio tracking, you can quickly determine where an animal is at any moment and what kind of activity it is engaging in. You may be thinking, how is this possible? Well, scientists gather a lot of data from tracking devices and with all that information, they can determine the daily movements of an animal and the size of its home range. Also, scientists analyze the collected data to learn new ways of controlling the animal population and discover the impact that development might have on the animal population.

GPS Tracking
When it comes to tracking animals with technology, GPS tracking is the latest technique. This process requires placing a radio receiver on an animal and monitoring the signals sent from special satellites. The receiver carries a computer which determines the movement and location of the wild animal.
