Your score is: 9 out of 13

8 - 10 Not bad at all. If tracking were French, you could select from the menu without unduly worrying about accidentally ordering brains

I hunt aswell but aside from knowing what a deer track and racoon, rabbit tracks and such. I pretty much had no idea what the hell was going on, but I tried to take educated guesses. Much like the first question I knew what the differences of the cat over canine paw was by looking, even though I didnt have any idea what I was looking for. But anyway I got a 9 out of 13.

Correct! Yes, it's a side lope. A lope is a slow form of gallop, in which at least one hind foot registers behind a front foot in each group of four tracks. In a standard lope, the four-track pattern is C-shaped. A side lope registers in an angled line of four tracks. This gait enables the bear to maintain a slight curve to his body, so that as he lopes away he can more easily look back at an animal that may have startled him.


Your score is: 12 out of 13

10 - 12 Very impressive. You're not just a hunter, you're a true outdoorsman (or woman).
