“Mammals inhabit every corner of out vast continent, yet the great majority of species are seldom seen.  The only clue to their presence might be a footprint left on a muddy track, a scat deposited on a rocky ledge, or bones scattered on a forest floor.  Barbara Triggs provides all the information needed to identify mammals anywhere in Australia, using only the tracks or other signs they leave behind.  Tracks, Scats and Other Traces is organised for easier identification of the visible traces left by Australian mammals.”
