Three days and a wake up.

I am looking forward returning to Nepal to conduct more research and interview more villagers in the are concerning their knowledge of tigers living in the area.


On another note, I was fortunate enough to receive some last minute support from a few organizations.  TORG Outdoor Products (torgusa.com) provided a couple of day packs to help carry our camera traps into the field. The Freeland Foundation (Freeland.org) has shared their expertise in monitoring wild tigers and Takakp Sato with Tigers for Tigers  (.facebook.com/ecotakako) for sharing her contacts groups.

 Some organizations were are now partnering with on a humanitarian or scientific level include Project Doable (Projectdoable.com), Wild Tracks (wildtracks.org) and the San Diego Zoo ( sandiegozoo.org).

We can always use additional supplies, such as batteries for the camera traps, SD cards, inexpensive digital cameras, cooking equipment, etc.  If you live in the USA, your donation may be a tax deduction, but will nevertheless be greatly appreciated.

[ways to give: Via PayPal or Via Go Fund Me]

We hope to be sending reports back from the field, which will be posted on the Blog.  Jizel, from Canada has volunteered to keep you as up to date as possible on what we've encounter. 

Thanks, Jizel!

  1. Everest Base Camp luxury Trek provides ample time for important acclimatization. Furthermore, frequent acclimatising gives more chances to enjoy successful treks in the Everest region. A wonderfully scenic flight to one of the world’s highest airstrips – Lukla, opens to an alpine world of exceptional beauty. The air is so pure and colourful prayer flags flutter from rooftops, welcoming you to this sublime region.
    The well-marked trail takes us through the well-known villages of Namche and Dingboche as well as Tengboche monastery; which reflects the true Sherpa culture. In addition, we make an ascent to Kala Pathar at (5545m). This is the point we get to view the famous climbing routes to the legendary summit of Mount Everest.
