Animal visitors. How do we know whether an animal has visited a place? One way we know is because it may leave tracks or marks in the soil. Tracks show where the animal's body has touched the ground. Let's find out who has visited us today.

动物访客 我们怎么知道有没有动物来过某个地方呢？ 其中一个方法就是看它会不会在泥土里留下脚印或者印记。 脚印能告诉我们动物的身体接触过哪里。 咱们来看看今天谁来拜访过我们吧。

Large animals. A large animal that likes honey made these tracks. This animal is a good climber. It has strong claws for digging up plants and it eats animals too. Can you guess who it is?

大型动物。 这些脚印是一种喜欢蜂蜜的大型动物留下的。 这种动物特别会爬树。 它有锋利的爪子可以挖植物，也会捕食其他动物。 你能猜到它是谁吗？

A black bear made these tracks. Black bears sleep all winter and wake up hungry in the spring.

这些脚印是黑熊留下的。 黑熊整个冬天都在睡觉，春天醒来的时候肚子可饿了。

A large animal with hooves made these tracks. This animal can eat 10 pounds of leaves, bark, and twigs each day. Can you guess who it is?

这些脚印是一种长着蹄子的大型动物留下的。 这种动物每天能吃掉10磅的树叶、树皮和小树枝哦。 你能猜到它是谁吗？

A deer made these tracks. Male deer grow antlers in the spring and shed them in late winter. Baby deer have spots that disappear when they grow up.

这些脚印是鹿留下的。 公鹿春天会长出鹿角，到了冬末鹿角就会脱落。 小鹿身上长着斑点，等它们长大斑点就会消失啦。
