Summary[]
The first snow falls and the Bear decides to teach Masha how to distinguish the tracks of different animals. Masha is quite far from being a good student and brings the poor bear almost to madness. But to his great surprise it turns out that some of her answers were not as absurd as they seemed to be.

Notes[]
- The title of the Russian version of the episode is a reference to the poem Ruslan and Ludmila (rus. Руслан и Людмила) by Alexandr Sergeyevich Pushkin (rus. Александр Сергеевич Пушкин), where there is a line: "Там на неведомых дорожках следы невиданных зверей" ("Where unknown beasts move never seen by man's eyes").
- The Bear, in order to show Masha a hare, paints in the snow the rabbit Krash (also known as Pogoriki and Jumpy, rus. Крош) from the animated series KikoRiki (also known in USA as GoGoRiki, BalloonToons, and Smeshariki, rus. Смешарики).
