Mongoose 2000 version 2 is now being used in the Banded Mongoose Research Project Fieldsite on the Mweya Peninsula, in the Queen Elizabeth National Park, western Uganda.
We’ve added two new focal observations – where a single mongoose in a specific life stage is followed, and has it’s activity recorded for 20 minutes. These observations include different events that can happen (fighting or cooperating with other individuals etc). Nearly all the interfaces are shown below – the system includes adding new packs or individuals, data review and syncronisation with other tablets via the Raspberry Pi.
