wildlife tracker
Reads forest signs
A wildlife tracker is a person skilled in reading animal signs—tracks, scat, broken vegetation, scent marks—to locate and follow wild animals.
Trackers work in conservation, hunting, research, and ecotourism: The wildlife tracker identified fresh leopard prints near the watering hole.
The term also applies to GPS devices or software used to monitor animal movements remotely.
