This week we're doing something a little different. Pictured below are some animal tracks. Can you guess who left them behind?

Here are some hints:
- This animal's front track is usually about 2 in (5.7 cm) long, and its hind track is usually about 3 in (7.9 cm) long.
- This animal is an omnivore and will eat just about anything.
Leave us a comment with your answer! Then come see us in the Classroom on Sunday, July 22th at 2:30 pm for Science Story Adventures to see if you're right and to do some more animal tracking. Science Story Adventures is our program for children ages 4 - 8 and their caregivers. In the program, we explore the natural world through stories, specimens, games and crafts.
