Jim, Carol, Gustavo Acaccio and I anived
here yesterday. The reserve is 1 hour
(highway) + 1 hour (dirt road) away from
São Paulo. We set up all live traps:
60 small Shermaus, 59 Tomahawks, 40
large Shermaus. Jim + Carol also set up
24 snaptraps. Seu Firmino, the care-
taker helped us choosing places and
setting up traps. Jim + Carol set up
traps on trilha dos Pilões, downhill,
in front of the researchers' house,
and on the crest trail (along the
crest of the scarpment), which runs
behind the house. Gustavo and I
walked up the road and set up
traps along the trail that takes
to Poco Verde and also in several
places along the road, as short
transecte (5 stations) into the
forest.
Weather is really nice, sunny,
blue sky, not hot though. It's
chilly at night. I have been here
twice or three times and have
never seen a non-foggy Boracéia
