Lesser Bushbaby (Galago Moholi)
This cache is located in the grounds of a lodge / campsite close to the Hluhluwe Game Reserve. No entrance fee, purchase or accommodation is required, just that you announce yourself at the gate. The lodge is situated in Kwazulu-Natal Coastal Sand Forest, which is home to much wildlife (no dangerous animals are present on the lodge property).
Lesser Bushbaby - (Galago moholi)
The (South African) Lesser Bushbaby has large eyes, a soft furry body, a small, rounded head, and extremely mobile, membranous ears. It is strictly nocturnal and spends a lot of time grooming before embarking on the night's activities. Lesser bushbabies are more lively than the thick-tailed bushbaby, and also spend relatively more time in trees: they are known for their spectacular leaping abilities. They often forage in acacias, the gum from which is a major item in their diet and is either licked or chewed.
They also eat insects, scorpions and small reptiles. If a convenient hole is unavailable, then the lesser bushbaby will make itself a flat, treetop nest or take over a disused bird's nest. When a group of lesser bushbabies share a nest, they lie at all angles, some upside down, in comfort: their ears folded back, forefeet covering the head and tail curling over it. They take a moment or two to wake up when woken and are quite vulnerable at this time.
Lesser bushbabies wet the soles of their feet with urine which helps dominant males to mark out their territory. This 'urine washing' is also part of their mating behaviour. The young are born in the shelter of a nest, which may be re-lined with leaves. When foraging the mother will carry the young from the nest and leave them clinging to a branch, returning them to the nest before dawn.
There is another cache on the property:- GC2FVQK - Bushbaby #1
If staying over or visiting the cache at night, make sure you avail yourself of the opportunity of viewing bushbabies from close up - the owner has built a feeding platform for the bushbabies which is visible from the deck of the bar area, and after nightfall you can have great sightings of the bushbabies nibbling on bananas and other fruit.
The owner is aware of the cache, but will not assist - you are on your own.
