As you may remember from our earlier post this year Elefence delivered 10 trail cams along with rechargeable batteries and memory cards. The cams were a significant upgrade to what WAG had been using and it was double the number of cams they had. The new cams give very clear pictures and take infrared photos in the dark. Cams are invaluable to keep track of wildlife and even record illegal entry and poaching in the reserves which provides evidence if a criminal is apprehended. The group of our supporters were instrumental in funding and delivering the trail cams and even went out with the rangers to do some installs.

Lynn is just beginning to get some pictures back and downloading them to the new laptop we also delivered. She will then begin to sort and analyze them for animal counts and tracking their movements which is vital for monitoring the health of the forest and its wildlife. The photos below are just the first what we expect will be many more.

Our supporters, Greg & Kathy Housel who helped fund and deliver the trail cameras in the bush with one of the new cams.

So good to see a healthy family of ellies in the bush.
