Central Indiana Track and Sign Eval

The CyberTracker Track and Sign Certification is an internationally applied, professional-level certification used to promote wildlife tracking and knowledge. This two-day field experience is both an assessment and a training, with an emphasis on open dialogue and real learning. The tracks and sign of any and all species encountered in the field may be asked, whether big or small, clear or obscure, fresh or old. After participants give their answers for a set of questions, a dialogue ensues between the evaluator and participants to provide the opportunity for everyone involved to internalize field marks, wildlife behavior, and natural history.

Learn to recognize tracks of mammals, birds, reptiles, and invertebrates on your landscape, and to interpret animal movement and behavior. This explorative practice reveals a hidden world of wildlife sign, and develops the ability to find subtle evidence of animal presence. In short, this skill set facilitates knowledge on a remarkable variety of life in a given ecosystem.

This Central Indiana Eval focuses on the rich biodiversity of the eastern woodlands, riparian corridors, fields and meadows found throughout Marion County.

​The Tracker Certifications emphasize practical tracking and the development of reliable field skills. No prior training is required to participate.

The White Pine campus is open for camping, included with the cost. Bring your own gear and food. No meals provided. Please let us know during registration if you’d like to camp.
