Another first! Two aardvark photographed together.
Aardvark are photographed frequently in Matobo, but are usually solitary. This recent photo of two animals together is a rarity. They are about the same size, and look like adults, so it is possible that they’re a pair.
Camera trapping can reveal really interesting information. For example, we got photos of an individually-recognisable aardvark at two places 1.3 km apart (as the crow flies) in a single night. In rugged terrain, it must have covered a fair bit more than that; quite a feat for a small animal.
