4.3. Limitations of the study A major limitation of the study was the season; the weather was dry and therefore many species were innactive and not able to be detected by trapping or other means; this was especially true for amphibians. Also due to dieback of most plant species during the season in which sampling was done, the identification was a problem making the checklist less exhaustive. Other limitations included transport, difficulties of logistics and local bureaucracy that often took hours and days to complete. Thus, in some cases days budgeted for field sampling were instead spent in lengthy discussions with local officials. We also realised that due to the size of the team and the amount of equipment required, the use of two large capacity, strong, four-wheel drive vehicles were needed. We were fortunate to be able to arrange this as well as for a 2 nd armed guard; it was only because of these arrangements that we were able to work efficiently and to sample vegetation and wildlife separately. Early during the fieldwork, it was recognised that it would not be possible to visit all of the sites noted in the TOR. We therefore focussed on those with the least data associated with them; in some cases the botanical team was able to visit sites not seen by the zoological team, but still made observations on wildlife. 141
