A Thousand Thanks!

The field research in southern Africa would not have been possible without the help of many friends and colleagues. We would like to take the opportunity to thank all those who supported our research since 1992

DeBeers Consolidated Mines Ltd. allowed us to work in Benfontein and use the research house for accommodation and lab facilities.
Edwin and Gisela Sliwa, Peter Gibbs and Arne Lawrenz gave us their Land Rovers for controlling traps and monitoring the radio-collared cats.
Mrs. Renate Stock repeatedly sponsored us generously through the Zoological Garden Wuppertal and the Cologne Zoo.
Many Canadians generously supported our efforts by donating through CanadaHelps.
The veterinary practice of Dr. Lore Marholdt started a fund-raising campaign and supports our project continuously.
