Learn about animal scat, tracks at exhibit
The High Desert Museum’s new “Scat and Tracks” exhibit opens Friday.
Scat — wild animal poop — and tracks offer clues about what animals do in the wild. Interactive stations at the exhibit will allow participants to match animals with their scat, make paw prints and animal track rubbings to take home. A re-created forest in the exhibit will allow participants to test their tracking skills. The exhibit is scheduled through Sept. 25.
The museum is located at 59800 S. U.S. Highway 97, about five minutes south of Bend. Admission is $15 adults, $12 ages 65 and older, $9 ages 5-12, free ages 4 and younger.

The happy anachronism: a fishing blog: Wild Animal Tracks in Belize
I have done enough research to know this is a big cat. The back edge of the foot pad is concave. There are two lobes on the anterior side of the foot pad and no claws are showing. According to Ivan Gillette, Programme for Belize ranger from the Rio Bravo Protected Area, it's a mountain lion, not a jaguar. He knew that by the even distribution of pressure across the pad prints. Ocelot (bottom). Again, this ID is courtesy of Ivan Gillette. I knew it was a small cat, but it could have been either an ocelot, jaguarundi, or maraguay. Ivan ID'ed it as an ocelot by the presence of the 5th toe and the relativley square shape of the print. The ocelot tracks overlaid the raccoon tracks along the edge of a small waterway.
