Ooh, how interesting, havent seen this !

Wholeheartedly agree, anyone can be a member here and if you don't want your info shared you should never upload it online period. Safety people!

It's hard to believe it until you've had your own experience. I know that was the case for me, and I am very aware of all of Todds work. A true skeptic I was :)

Very cool, thank you for sharing Alex, and Andy for posting. Im not Todd, but in my experience its very difficult to tell the age of a track in moss unless you were at that exact location and knew the tracks not to be there at that point. I found a huge track that I thought may be fresh, then took people to see it for 2 years and it looked as good 2 years later as it did the day I found it, the moss just holds the impression so well. That said, the following spring when the snow melted it was gone like it had never existed. Can you explain the timing (ie, you knew to be fresh?) how? Not to question your story, but to get a better understanding. Maybe you know stuff I don't about moss prints!

@Amanda Joseph i like their ears :)

todd didnt get an expensive microscope, only $300 cad

Todd uses a microscope. non techy, i don't understand thew whys and hows of it all , but fur and hair look different under a scope. i think you need 300x magnification but i could be totally wrong. im sure there is info or videos about this online. i believe Jeff (meldrum) told todd about it?

I've experirenced it along with Todd at the zoo during a gorilla encounter. It stunned us --immobilized, we were sitting down. They had to shake us (the zoo keepers) to snap us back into the present. Its like we were unconscious but were awake. It was bizarre, I dont know how else to describe it.

Todd answered this somehere else on here--they make rock stacks and leave him gifts on them.

That had to take considerable time....

ive had the privilege of an up close and personal visit with a troup of gorillas, their behavior is outstanding and you can definitely draw parallels.

i confess I didn't listen to it, someone emailed it and asked for thoughts, i didn;t have time. Good to see whta everyone thinks. The sound of wolves howling at night in my new place in the country is unnerving but i kind of like it. dogs definitely have a distinct sound.

yes they also shred pinecones into weird little shavings in piles under trees

@Amanda Joseph todd also has this funny littke dish that attachges, looks like a satellite dish. it helps.
