I would like to track the movement of some spiders species. I wanted to know if maybe some of you know a relatively simple free software that would allow me to do this.
Hi,
I have used this free program to analyse hovering flight of hummingbirds: https://www.cabrillo.edu/~dbrown/tracker/

Are you tracking videos? I have used this tracking software ^ too. If you have a pc and not a mac, the programme "Kinovea" (http://www.kinovea.org/) does an even better job. Although I like "Tracker" for its simplicity (and mac compatibility), I used it to analyse locomotion (specifically velocity) in Northern Quolls.
Luis:
Zootracer is software developed at Microsoft Research, capable of accurately tracking multiple, unmarked, interacting individuals in arbitrary video footage. As the software is independent of recording devices, the user may provide recordings from any habitat type. With its intended ability to robustly cope with variations in lighting, camera movement and changes in object appearance, Zootracer represents a step forward in facilitating the collection and analysis of behaviour not just for laboratory experiments, but more importantly, for biologists in the field.
This information, and a link to the free download, is available at:

I would be interested to hear if you find the software useful.
MOuse lab tracker from this link is good

Alos have a look to the Image J plugin WrmTracker

I would like to track the movement of zebra fish adult as well as hatchings. I want like to know if maybe some of you know a relatively simple free software that would allow me to do this
Muthu, did you ever successfully find a software? I am currently trying to track fish movement and haven't had much success with the program I tried (Tracker).
Dear researchers. I need to know if someone successfully
Identified an open source software for zebra fish tracking.

I made mouse motion tracking software prototype.
source and exe(windows 10 64 bit) are below.

Kinovea works better for zebrafish. But any other software which is free will be useful
Check ToxTrac, a free software for animal tracking we have developed. Maybe it can be useful for you or someone with a similar project.
Here is the project site: https://toxtrac.sourceforge.io
Here is the project in research gate: https://www.researchgate.net/project/ToxTrac-Free-software-for-animal-tracking
Traja (traja.readthedocs.io) provides animal trajectory data analysis in Python. Trajr (https://github.com/JimMcL/trajr) allows similar analysis in R.

Hi all!
For those still interested in this topic and using Windows OS, there is AnimalTA that I developed: http://vchiara.eu/index.php/animalta
It's free and user-friendly (no need to code, easy installation). It allows tracking a high number of targets in the same or in multiple arenas. It's specially adapted to "difficult" videos (low resolution, tremors, changes in lighting conditions, etc.). It does both tracking and trajectory analyses.
