Report on surveying, catching and monitoring Black-footed cats (_Felis nigripes_) on Benfontein Nature Reserve, Nuweijaarsfontein and Taaiboschpoort Farms in 2014
2015  Full Book

The Black-footed Cat Working Group (BFCWG) aims to conserve this rare cat species by furthering awareness and conducting multidisciplinary research on the species' biology. The BFCWG owns a research vehicle (Toyota Hilux) for which the insurance, running and maintenance costs are administered by the McGregor Museum, Kimberley, South Africa. The specialized equipment required for our research is also stored at the McGregor Museum. This year we made one joint trip to the two previous study areas: Nuwejaarsfontein (NJF) and Taaiboschpoort (TBP) Farms, south of De Aar, from 12-22 November 2014 then to Benfontein Nature Reserve (BFN), near Kimberley, from 22-25 November 2014.
