Thanks guys, I'm glad to share this subject here.
It has helped me become more aware of the game signs and the overall picture. I looked into pig tracks compared to others, like whitetail deer, and found a number of very good track charts. I downloaded a couple of charts as PDF files for my own personal reference.
I gave little thought to identifying much smaller tracks like mice or what have you or more importantly, cougar tracks. There is one I have thought to be aware of, and it is much like a canine track. You got badgers, mink, fox, beaver (I'd love to see those tracks), ducks, and so on, all of which I never bothered with much if I had noticed them to begin with.
