Enjoying Sweden

I’ve been at home for about three months now. Nice with some rest although life is hectic in Sweden too. Lots of ‘office work’ to do, to top things up I signed up for a statistics course. Not sure what I was thinking then but for the last two months I have been struggling to learn the fine art of stats. People say its hard to catch snow leopards but try understanding an ANOVA…
Another bright idea was to buy a gym card. I do need to get back in shape but man my body has been hurting for the last weeks.

Anyways, it’s just three more weeks and then I am returning to Mongolia for three more months of field work. I will put snares around our old Base camp, hoping to catch Aztai yet again. His collar will soon be out of batteries so I better put a new one on him. Hopefully Khavar still use that area too, his collar dropped off last October. With even more luck Saikhan, a young male collared in 2009, passes by now and then and can get a new collar too. Plus any new cat that we haven’t caught yet.

It will be a busy period with a filmcrew, supervisor visits, a friend from Kolmarden zoo plus a couple of volunteers. And hopefully lots of captures, more soon.
