¿Perros detectives? Gracias a sus extraordinarias habilidades para olfatear, algunos cachorros aprenden a ayudar a los científicos a investigar y rastrear a animales en peligro de extinción. ¿Tras qué pista van? La caca. Los perros que son parte de los equipos de detectives de la vida salvaje están entrenados para captar el olor de la caca (excrementos) de los animales salvajes para que los científicos puedan aprender de ellos sin tener que atraerlos o atraparlos. Al igual que muchos cazadores de caca, Sampson, el perro en este libro, solía vivir en un refugio, era demasiado activo y alocado para las familias. Esa energía e impulso es lo que lo hace tan buen detective. Está entrenado para seguir a muchas especies, desde salamandras hasta osos, pero su meta siempre es la misma. ¡Encontrar la caca y capturar la pelota!
