TRACKS

 


Photo by Allan "Bow" Beauchamp

Allan "bow" Beauchamp:

On our day in the woods I like to take people to where the game is, in old bush, to see what most people don't see or find.
Seen here is a good size bear track.

When people are near these animals we should always remember that we are in their home range and respect it.

Here's a series of photos of a set of bear tracks in sand. These were found on the sand dunes and beach of the Little Pic River, on the north shore of Lake Superior (Ontario, Canada).

In all of the photos, the bear was walking towards the camera.
