Back to Malawi

My time back in the UK is nearly over now and I am returning to South Africa for a few weeks and then onto Malawi where I will continue with my project looking for the carnivores. I will be in Hluhluwe for a few days with the research team trying to learn as much as possible about the Carnivores and will then travel up through Swaziland and the Krugar for a few days before flying back up to Malawi.
I have written to many organisations trying to get some funding for my project but have not had any firm offers yet although there are a few organisations that are interested and very supportive. The future does look promising. My thanks goes to those organisations that replied to my letters and in particular to Australia Zoo (Steve Erwins group) and the David Sheldrake trust for their support.
I will taking 6 motion sensor cameras with me and hope to use these to survey the wildlife in the parks to see what is actually out there especially at night. I will keep the web site up dated with my findings. As you can imagine it is not safe to walk around at night when looking lion and leopard so hopefully the cameras will pick up animals that not many people see.
