On several occasions bongo have been right up to the 
entrance of the small traps and one actually went inside 
but returned out of the same door and dian 20 deep enough 
in to set off the trigger mechanism. We do feel that the 
trap method will work - what is essential is time and 
patience. W© have now started building our pit traps which 
nave been designed not to hurt the animals when they fall 
in and also when any animal not wanted such as a buffalo 
has to be released it can be done without camage to either 
the animal or to ourselves. At the timc of writing this 
report no pit trap has been completed. 
Attached +8 a list animals caught in the traps, 
ALI Fe egtiom anima sre successfully released and not one 
animal was intahed in any way and the traps have never failed 
to work. The only trouble we have had is from monkeys setting 
eff the trans - a game they fortunately got tired of fairly 
soon,
