Meet the Zoologist

Marc Hanekom (M. Sc. Zoology), is a Faunal Fieldwork Specialist. He uses the minimum required industry standard faunal fieldwork methods (stipulated regionally and at a national level), but continues thinking of new methods whilst out in the field.

In addition to using trail cameras, Marc specialises in nocturnal faunal data collection: think of the Porcupine (Hystrix africaeaustralis), Aardvark (Orycteropus afer), Striped Polecat (Ictonyx striatus), Brown Hyaena (Hyaena brunnea), Honey Badger (Mellivora capensis) and owls to name a few.

Crepuscular or Twilight observation periods fall between 04:00 - 06:00 in the morning and 17:00 - 19:00 in the evenings. These time periods coincide with sunrise (dawn) and sunset (dusk) which are 'popular' feeding times amongst crepuscular animals.
