Over the past few weeks Primate and Predator Project have been up, under, through & through to service camera traps. A huge thank you to the students for all their hardwork and dedication, in not always ideal conditions. Thank you to Michelle Hurley for being a great trail blazer

As the Soutpansberg has been incredibly fortunate to have some rain, this does mean that the vegetation has grown substantially. In order the prevent taking thousands of images of grass, we slash the area infront of the cameras to ensure we are capturing clear images of animals.

Happy Earth Day.The theme is "Our Power, Our Planet". "A small change can make a big difference. You are the only one who can make our world a better place to inhabit. So, don't be afraid & take a stand", Ankita Singhal. Let's all make a change today, to make our world better.

Crop preference trials have begun again. Because of all the incredible rain we've had, we changed the test site, ever so slightly, otherwise we would need to use inflatable buckets😁 The hide was rolled, repositioned and lastly mended, before the trials could recommence.

Primate Predator Project have been out and about scouting a new site for a camera location. Currently most of the projects camera grid is on the south of the Soutpansberg mountain, but we are looking at expanding the camera trapping grid, into the northern slopes of the mountain

Primate and Predator Project have been out & about servicing the camera traps. We have experienced different weather conditions, from cold & misty, to 28 degrees celcius, all in one day. PPP's trusted mascot accompanied these trips, to ensure the students are following protocol😃

Primate Predator Project is excited by this capture of a leopard with two cubs. This video was taken on a students personal camera trap. We have subsequently placed up another camera trap, to see if we can get further captures of this family, in order to identify this female.

There is not alot that surprises us, when checking camera trap images, but this one sure did. When fellow researchers play an April fools joke on you🤪Thank you to Lajuma Research Center for the effort you put into making us laugh!!

Primate Predator Project have 30 permanent camera stations, across 12 properties in the Western Soutpansberg mountains. Primate Predator Project are extremely grateful to all of the landowners that continue to support the project. Thank you to each and everyone of you.

Primate Predator Project had the privalidge of attending & presenting at the 1st Alldays Wildlife Research Conference held at Makoppas Nest over the week-end. It was a great networking experience for managers & students. Thank you to AWCRC for organizing it.

1/2...The Primate Predator Project permanent camera trapping grid is setup to optimize the capture of leopard images. The cameras are set at a specific height above the ground and placed across the landscape to maximise the possibilty of leopards passing by them.

It is always extremely exciting to arrive home after a long fieldday and see what animals the camera traps have managed to capture. Here is a sequence of a young leopard, in it's natural habitat, just being a leopard❤ #leopard #leopardlove #globalleopardconference #conservation

Researchers from Durham Anthropology have shown that human persecution leads to prolonged anxiety & physiological stress amongst baboons. The study gives unique insights into the impacts experienced by surviving baboons. Find out more 👉brnw.ch/21wTwWq

Thank you for everything- you will be missed!

It is always amazing to see how many different animals move past one camera station. This is a snapshot of some of the different species moving past a specific camera. Primate and Predator Project are extremely fortunate to work in such a beautiful, special location.
