David has only one camera still in place in the jungle. He plans on collecting that one on Monday. None of us can believe we have to leave next Wednesday... These images were on the camera he took down last week. David has been going out with the crew that hauls water for washing dishes and bathing. While they pump water from the river he investigates nearby "aguadas" or watering holes. He has placed cameras where he has seen footprints of animals he was hoping to capture "on film". These two images are from an aguada that the workers here call "Los Loros" (The Parrots). David saw puma and tapir tracks there. And he captured images of both. We all knew his method was sound. Still, I told him he is either the luckiest twelve year old in the world or this jungle is FULL of animals. David is already formulating plans for his 2014 research year.
