Which of the following is not a typical field sign of wildlife use?

• A. Tracks.
• B. Scat.
• C. Bedding signs.
• D. Tire tracks from vehicles.

Answer: (D)

Field signs are indicators left by the animals themselves to show they used an area. Tracks, scat, and bedding signs all come from the animal and point to recent activity or presence. Tire tracks from vehicles, on the other hand, come from humans and reflect human activity rather than wildlife use. They may signal that people were there and could influence wildlife behavior, but they do not prove that wildlife used the site. So tire tracks from vehicles are not a typical field sign of wildlife use.
