Re: [KENYABIRDSNET] Fw: image of Golden-rumped Elephant-shrew

Hi Brian,

They should find some good images of GRES at the afrotheria site given below....and by contacting Dr. Galen Rathbun, who studied GRES for this PhD dissertation, is head of the Afrotheria Specialist Group, and maintains this site. He might be in the field in Namibia at this time...but will certainly respond when back on email.

Cheers,

Tom
