A couple of new reports today
First, a great report from Steve Morgan who went to Tunisia and saw a couple of Sand Cats plus plus 18 other species in 10 days, including Fennec Fox, Algerian Hedgehog and Barbary Sheep.
Second, a report from my trip to Panama last weekend which was better than I’d hoped: 32 species over 4 nights including Olingos, Central American Woolly Opossums, Rufous Tree Rat and Spectral Bats.

Nice, especially for a weekend!
There are usually 1-2 habituated spectral bats in Bat Cave on Utila Island, Honduras. Here’s a photo from 2008:
Great picture. I’d better get to Honduras I think 🙂
I really enjoyed Steve’s report, as I have been planning a trip to Tunisia and some neighbouring countries for a while, to see many of the same animals. Given that a few of these species have been reintroduced in Tunisia. it would be great to ask Steve a few questions, if he does not mind providing an email address?
Thanks

Sure Jason, I have made sure Steve sees this.
Great……thanks Jon.
