Match animal footprints with this fun forest friends animal tracks worksheet by finding two footprints that are the same!

Can you help the lion, fox, squirrel and giraffe match their left and right feet? Each animal has an animal print beside it but seems to have lost its other animal print. Start on the left side of the page and see the correct animal footprint for each forest animal. Then find the matching animal print on the right and draw a line from the animal print on the left to the matching animal print on the right.

This animal tracks matching worksheet was inspired by the book Life-Sized Animal Tracks by John Townsend. If you haven’t read the book, check out my review on this animal tracks children’s book. It’s super fun and has REAL SIZE animal footprints!
