I always like getting camera trap photographs of Large-Spotted Genet. The strange reed-like plants in the background gave this location an interesting look.

I still can't figure out what happened to this Genet's head... Is this the fabled
Headless-Genet of Berg River that the mothers, in nearby town of Franschhoek, use to scare their children with if they don't brush their teeth?

| Quick! Spit on the bottom of your shoe and stamp on the ground, or the Headless-Genet of Berg River will give you hiccups!! |
It was also nice to get a photograph of a baby Porcupine. He seems like a feisty little bugger!

The parents where frequent visitors to the camera traps as well.

ReplyDeleteThanks Jeremy. Yes, the camera was very close to where you got those cool videos at the burrow :)
