and the track of a fox Is readily dl3
anguished from that of a rabbit or

track of one coon may differ from that
of his own brother, so that one can
eomctimc- distinguish the track of a

different occasions get something like
nn Insight into Its life. Thus a famous
'grizzly In the west was known by Ids
track. One ot his toes had been cut

made In his track was easy to see.
