This discipline addresses posture, clothing, diet, de-scenting, and soft-walking, the ultra-slow-motion technique that falls below the radar of wildlife's peripheral vision. - how to read individual tracks and multiple gaits of specific animal species. - how to convert animal skins into rawhide and leather for crafts and clothing. - how to differentiate species of snakes and, in the process, demystify their often misunderstood intentions. The second half of the book is dedicated to games. Its main purpose is to ensure that young ones (under an adult leader) simply have fun on an outing and will want to return to nature for another adventure. Some of these games come from Native American traditions, but many are new and range from high-action to pensive around the campfire kinds of activities. This volume contains more than one hundred fifty original adventures.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/49/304/559/1493045598_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "29.95", "online_price" : "29.95", "our_price" : "29.95", "club_price" : "29.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
