The AfriCat Pangolin Research Project continued through Covid but we have been able to significantly improve it in 2022. We have increased the number of pangolins recruited into the study, registered all known pangolin burrows and set up camera traps at many of them. We have found ‘old’ individuals that were formerly part of our research pre Covid and also new individuals, some of whom are the offspring of ‘old’ pangolin. We have had problems with some of the pangolin tags however and will be looking to find improvements in 2023.
