# Tracking_Observations

Comment:
active. Also tracks (in Melaleuca glomerata)


Comment:
large burrow with 7 entrances, also scat


Comment:
active burrow, also tracks and scats - collected


Comment:
many dingo tracks to access water at bore


Comment:
10 entrances, juv and adult, latrine 1m x 1m


Comment:
Lots of fresh and old Egernia kintorei burrows and latrine


Comment:
large female or small male bilby; fresh tracks (1 or 2 days)


Comment:
large female or small male bilby; old tracks (more than one week)


Comment:
Unsure what this note was about. Unlikely to be extant animal. Could be sign of old burrow which can remain in landscape for a long time.


Comment:
recorded as Slaters Skink but more likely to be Egernia striata


Comment:
recorded as warlpurda - translated by David Nash as Varanus tristis
