The elusive lives of otters, badgers, weasels and more are rendered in John Lister-Kaye's enchanting lyrical style

A WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF 2023: NATURE AND TRAVEL

Footprints in the Woods is John Lister-Kaye's charming account of a year spent with otters, badgers, weasels and pine martens. This family - Mustelidae - all live in the wild at Aigas, the conservation and field study centre in the Highlands that he calls home.

With fifty years of experience living side-by-side with these creatures and the patience of a true naturalist, John reveals the lives of these elusive animals; sometimes red in tooth and claw, but often playful, familial, curious and surprising.
