Conditions: 

This permit is issued to Professor Anusuya Chinsamy-Turan (University of Cape Town) for invasive sampling of eleven (11) long bones of the giraffid Sivatherium hendeyi and nine (9) long bones of the giraffid Giraffa jumae, from the Pliocene locality, Langebaanweg, within the West Coast Fossil Park National Heritage Site for osteohistological analysis. The material is currently housed at Iziko Museums of South Africa in Cape Town. It is noted that only incomplete/fragmentary bones were selected, and fractures/breaks already present in the bones will be made use of.

Conditions:

2. No paratype material may be sampled.

3. Sampling and analysis will take place at the University of Cape Town.

4. A permit report on the activities undertaken in terms of this permit must be emailed to apmpermitreports@sahra.org.za before 31 January 2021 using the template in the following link: https://sahris.sahra.org.za/content/apmpermitreports. SAHRA reserves the right to withhold further permits if progress is not deemed satisfactory. Permit reports can be made available to researchers on request within three years of the lapsing of this permit.
