The word “bontebok” translates to “patchwork buck” in Afrikaans. The bontebok was once considered to be the rarest antelope in the world, with only 17 left in the wild in the early 19th century.

After the tiny population of bontebok were relocated to other parks, they began to reproduce and thrive. Bontebok numbers hovered in the low hundreds for many years. Careful conservation efforts have helped their numbers increase to around 3,500 today. 📷: Cyn Reynolds

A Nose for Loot? Dogs Training to Sniff Out Stolen Artifacts
A team of scientists will train dogs to see if the animals can sniff out looted artifacts from the Middle East that are being smuggled into the United States.
Dogs have a greater sense of smell than humans and are already being used to sniff out bombs, drugs and ivory. Now, scientists are hoping the canines can also be trained to sniff out artifacts from Syria and Iraq, war-torn countries that have experienced widespread looting of archaeological sites.
“Terrorists, organized crime and common criminals are destroying archaeological sites on an industrial scale to cash in on illegal profits … that is why we need to find out if we can train dogs to help,” said Michael Danti, a consulting scholar at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, in a statement announcing the creation of the K-9 Artifact Finders research program.
