What will I do every day?

In the morning, volunteers will travel to the meerkat burrow, weigh the meerkats when they emerge, collect  2.5h  of  behavioural  data  after  the  meerkats  start  to  forage,  and  weigh  the  meerkats  again before returning to the farm house. At the farmhouse, volunteers will upload and manage the data they collected, perform other small project-related tasks, eat lunch and rest before returning to the field for the afternoon session. In the afternoon, volunteers will radio-track the meerkat group, collect another 2h of behavioural data and weigh the meerkats when they return to a burrow but before they go down for the night. Volunteers are given two days off every week. Volunteers are given a three week holiday.
