After a rabies outbreak took our batty population down (like really down, only one of our habituated individual survived) we packed our bags and left the field...

Let's hope for many puppies next year and that the population will recover swiftly!

We took another trip to the Kgalagadi early Feb 2016, here are a few shots...
