Questions from Jogn E. (pd. 1)

1) Do the scientists (or the animals) ever become dehydrated with the high temperatures and drought conditions?
Everyone on the team, scientists and volunteers, was careful to drink enough water, so dehydration was not a problem for us. Because it was so hot, you wanted to drink lots of water!
--Ms. Russell

2) How is water supplied to all the scientists and volunteers?
Water is supplied to the volunteers and scientists from the lodging area. We carried our boiled and filtered water bottles every where we went.

3) Is the water at the reserves purified or clean?
The water at the reserves is boiled and filtered for the people. The water is not purified for the animals because they are used to drinking it.
