For a total of 11 nights (5 nights on BFN, 6 nights on NJF & TBP,) a 4x4 vehicle (2.4 litre Diesel Toyota Hilux Double cab or Toyota Landcruiser) drove a route of 20–80 km in length along dirt roads at a speed of 20–30 km/h whilst looking for the characteristic bright eyeshine of cats. A minimum of 2 people (4-6 this trip) stood on the open back of the vehicle operating 2 spotlights (1 million candle power / Lightforce® SL240 mm).
