Hi Lorraine, Sorry can't help you here as we stick to the Big Cats, but you may want to contact Kathy Alexander from "Caracal" in Kasane. The other person would be Dr. Cyril Taolo who is the person in charge of research for the DWNP in Botswana. His e-mail is ctaolo@xxxxxx . Good luck, Mike cid:image001.jpg@01CAD63D.0A080F90 Michael B.
