It is currently very rainy in Maroantsetra - good for CPALI and the caterpillars - but not humans! Mario and Bertrand found many stage 5 caterpillars in the field and so far 600 cocoons have been collected from the Maraontsetra rearing site. The team has just located 3 new host plant sites - Vodivohitra, 20 kilometers, and Sahajinja, 30 kilometers from Maroantsetra. The farmers in Ambodivoaghany, the "CPALI 5" are transplanting host plant seedlings into family gardens. Despite Madagascar's current political difficulties, CPALI is continuing to move ahead.
