Volunteers needed for behavioural study of Cape fur seal behaviour in relation to shark predation at Seal Island, Cape Town, South Africa. I am looking for volunteers to assist me with data collection for my postgraduate project on Cape fur Seals. This involves field observation of Seal groups at the island and monitoring VHF telemetry systems. The island boasts some of the highest predation rates on seals by sharks anywhere in the world. Volunteers must be hard-working and should ideally be in possession of a skippers ticket. The field season runs from April - September 2007 and volunteers would need to be available for four weeks at a time. Unfortunately we cannot assist with living costs, but we can facilitate accomodation and other logistical issues. Interested parties please contact Alta de Vos at adevos@botzoo.uct.ac.za Thank you, Alta de Vos MSc student, University of Cape Town. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
