Beat officers and other staff will carry out a sign survey of carnivores and megaherbivores, logging all direct and indirect evidence in the mstripes app. The camera trapping exercise was completed in 25 days time on December 10th. The exercise will start in November and will include density and vegetation plot surveys in each line transect of the respective beats within the next 36 days, based on the number of line transects in each beat.
