Sorry to hear of this. An inspiring character who introduced a generation of young Zimbabwean students to the joys of #ornithology.
The Fitz is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Professor Peter Mundy. Prof Mundy trained many of the students that passed through the doors of the Fitz and was highly influential in the the field of Southern African ornithology, particularly in relation to vultures. R.I.P
Happy to have this paper out and stoked at the inclusivity of #globalsouth authors! So important for the narrative. This also marks 10 years since the start of my PhD on this topic with @graemecumming at the @Fitztitute.
Officially one week into my three month placement at the @Fitztitute studying nomadic movements in desert birds! What a week it’s been 🤩 @UCT_news
