We followed fresh jaguar tracks for a total 39 km. .

Each set of tracks was followed .

In tracking resident and transient lions literally handreds of mile .

Tracks indicated that three or possible four puma included Acurizal (название местности) in their travels although none were wholly resident there .

We deduced movement pattern from spoo .

Tracks vary in appearance depending on the individuals size, its gait, slope steepness and type of substrate. Tracks made in snow are especially subject to variation, as melting rapidly distorts and enlarges prints .

Obviously factors such as habitat, elevation, and track size serve to separate leopard and tiger in places where they are said to occur in proximity. .

Tracks indicated that male had passed within 50 m of the young and its kill (добыча) the same day of the capture .

The following day we tracked the large male and captured him some 3 miles distant .

A lion abruptly changed course, sometimes retracing its route for a considerable distance (invariably it was found that another lion or family of lions was in the area) .
