Carol Fox
Research Cam Founder
Carol is the manager of Research Cam and also Project coordinator. Carol formed Research Cam in 2008 with the aim of raising
funds for African wildlife conservation projects. In Carols words 'after spending many years involved in conservation and helping
to fund Leopard Research, it was clear that a commercial operation was required to help to raise funds for conservation.
Sustainable funding is essential to enable underfunded conservation projects to continue their much needed work and in most
cases just to survive.'
Since 2004, Carol volunteered to work on Leopard Research and has been extensively involved in tracking and monitoring
leopard behaviour.

Tara Pirie - Volunteer team leader
Tara’s passion for wildlife came about from a very early age especially a keen interest in big cats. It was time spent volunteering at
South Lakes Wild Animal Park that the realisation came of how fascinated she was with animal behaviour. Having had the privilege
of working with Panthera species such as tigers and lions among a whole range of creatures from across the globe, she decided
to further her education in understanding the science behind the behaviour. She read zoology at the University of Newcastle-
Upon-Tyne gaining a 2:1 with Honours. After visiting the Sumatran Tiger Trust, in Sumatra as part of the degree, she was keen to
observe more behaviour of wildlife in their natural surroundings. Having been a full time keeper at the same park for a number of
years, an opportunity occurred to do this and she began training to become a field guide in South Africa. Once the course was
completed she began her career as a safari guide, observing every aspect of African nature including the big 5 in close proximity,
providing guests with insight into the natural world. Moving from the stunning Waterberg to the world famous Sabi sands to
become a wildlife presenter for WildEarth’s LIVE broadcasts was really where she learned about the leopard intimately! The move
to the Ingwe leopard research is an exciting new chapter which will help to understand more about the last of the big 5 which still
roam wild across South Africa.
