Mali Field Notes - Songuéla I

Literacy classes in the village of Songuéla I have been shifted to the daytime, providing an excellent opportunity to test the Kinkajou under different conditions. Field rep Ousmane Samake reports that the karamogo closes the doors and windows of the classroom in order to achieve the required darkness. The daytime temperatures make heat dissipation for the Kinkajou difficult, so it is only used 15 minutes at a time.
