For this phenology project I travel all around Burlington area and looked for wildlife sign. I went to Centennial, around campus, and to the intervale and found multiple signs and tracks of animals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This I believe is a field mouse track.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This track was found at the intervale center, and I believe is a field mouse track because it follows a gallopers pattern and has a short stride with tail drag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These tracks were also found at the intervale center, and I believe them to be weasel tracks. I originally thought they were shrew, or vole tracks however due to their size and the bounder pattern I now believe it to me a short-tailed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This next track was found at centennial woods and is a grey squirrel track as it fits a galloper pattern and has the proper drag marks. This stride is also about 4 inches with a straddle of 4ish inches as well meaning it is most likely a grey squirrel.

This next track is what I believe to be a snowshoe hare as you can clearly see the bigger hind legs with the toe prints, the smaller front feet and a clear galloper pattern.
