Waar u de Cape Grey Mongoose in Zuid-Afrika ziet

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Cape Grey Mongoose at stays in or beside uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, Cederberg Wilderness Area, Goukamma Nature Reserve, Addo Elephant National Park, Table Mountain National Park and Ai-Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.

The Cape Grey Mongoose is most recorded in Western Cape (82% of records), Eastern Cape (9% of records), Northern Cape (7% of records), based on 1,500 iNaturalist observations. 54 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Cape Grey Mongoose on site or nearby.

The Cape Grey Mongoose is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Cederberg Wilderness Area: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct; Goukamma Nature Reserve: year-round, warm Oct-Apr; Addo Elephant National Park: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Cape Grey Mongoose (Herpestes pulverulentus) is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
