Description: Karel "Vet Piet" Kleinman inspecting an ant-hill. In the Kalahari, ant hills and colonies occur where dunes are wide apart.Karel "Vet Piet" Kleinman was a skilled and well-known field ranger until his death in 2004. He was trained by Regopstaan Kruiper and was passing this ethnoecological knowledge on to a new generation of San trackers in a training project known as ||Uruke at the time of his death. Images from this trip document the first excursions into the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park and were a central part of the work on oral history and mapping in the first years of research.
