We’re Back

Orjan is a Swedish PhD student who bought a one-way ticket to Mongolia to work at the base camp of our long-term research project.  These are his adventures… 

We arrived back in camp this morning, and things look good. A rat (or something similar) has made a hole in the plastic box where we keep the food, but otherwise things seem to be fine. During the coming days, we’ll gather all the photos from the self-operating field cameras, and install ourselves in a small, separate field camp, so that we’re all set to start fitting snow leopards with collars when Guy arrives.
