Field course is out and away today with most of the RAs, since the elephants are nearby. Three of the RAs have taken the students to botanical plots downriver, which will keep them safe, and allow u slightly more freedown whilst trapped indoors here.

Once the field course had returned, we all enjoyed lunch and then Abbie and Katey were sentout on a cautious mission to check on the loris sleeping sites.

I think we’re all starting to get a bit bored without any field work for two consecutive days. It might have seemed like a day off for the PTYs, had they not been coralled in DG.

Finally just got word that Sergio, Joe, and I will be out to capture a monitor lizard tomorrow morning. With all of these elephants that have been around in the oast few days, it’s too bad I still haven’t been able to see one–oh well, still two and a half weeks left.
