Get to know Khwezi

What sparked your interest in bats?
My wife took me on one of her field trips in the Western Cape (South Africa) to set up bat detectors to figure out which species were present in the area. Before going on bat searching I had only known about Batman. The fieldwork was a real eye opener for me - discovering the behaviour of bats. 

If you were another animal, what would you be? 
I’d be a Lion. King of the jungle :o)

What is your favourite quote?
If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. ~ 
Dr. Wayne Dyer

When you are out and about what do you enjoy doing?
I enjoy seeing new places and meeting people from different cultures to try and figure out the diversity that we have on this planet as humans, and it always amazes me.
