| I downloaded Tosca’s and Obelixa’s data sets. Tosca moved her cubs from the bushy “Jungle Den” to a rocky cave-like den approximately 300 metres away. I’ve set up two camera traps in the area, one taking photos and the other one short video clips. Again, I get lots of nose shots and the videos haven’t captured any hyenas yet, but quite a few springbok. So far I only managed to get one photograph of Tosca carrying a seal pup carcass to the den. Obelixa’s last download did not reveal any den site location and it is still unclear whether she is denning at the moment. The feeding ecology study at the Wolf Bay seal colony is going to start on 15 November with the help of a student from the Polytechnic of Namibia. It has been four years since the study has been carried out last. |
