Our last field work trip of the semester took place right in our backyard in Reserva Nacional Tamango. For the past 2 months, we have been able to see Tamango, a mountain just northeast of Aquasol (our base camp), as it transitions through the seasons […] Now in the first week of April, we got the opportunity to explore the region while collecting important data on the conditions of the trails.

Our time in Botswana is beginning to wind down, but we have still been treated to some incredible new sights and experiences. Close encounters with a pride of lions, playing wiffleball at sunset with a bat hand-carved from Mopane, and catching a glimpse of the elusive and almost mythical Sable Antelope are just a few things that made Khwai a magical place to spend some of our last days in the field.
