Information on footprints

Footprints are the impressions or images left behind by a person walking or running. Hoof prints and paw prints are those left by animals with hooves or paws rather than feet, "shoe prints" is the specific term for prints made by shoes. They may either be indentations in the ground or something placed onto the surface that was stuck to the bottom of the foot. A "track way" is set of footprints in soft earth left by a life-form; animal tracks are the footprints, hoof prints, or paw prints of an animal.
