CATS

We got stunning new footage of three species of cats that have rarely been filmed in the wild, and probably never before in full color HD. Wow!

After we got it's breathing sound last month, this time we have the first fysical evidence of tiger presence. Unfortunately, "Si Belang", (the striped one) obviously likes to keep us in suspense...

FIRST RESULTS FROM THE FOREST CAM'S

Last week we've checked the camera's for the first time and we can be quite satisfied with the results. Among  common animals like sambar deer and wild pig we got two species of cat and a banded civet. It's a big suprise we got a marbled cat just in the first couple of weeks of the project. Unfortunately it's only visible for a couple of seconds, but it might come back again.
In the last fragment there are two pigs that got suddenly very scared of something. When you put the volume up, there's clearly a sound of something breathing. What could it be? I think there's only one animal that chases full grown pigs... If we had only put the camera's on the the other side of the pool...
Next month new changes!
