    What is causing this off color square in the middle of the picture?

    We need that info from our scientists. Let's be patient, we surely will know later, as soon as they can inform us. Hopefully it is just something temporary. Now we just have to ignore that and try to classify the animals in images. Wildebeest herd here. 😃

    Hi guy's,

    This odd square is simply a software malfunction with one of our camera-trap types. The company have supplied us with a patch that can fix it which the scientists and techs use to sort the problem. They do make for some interesting pictures though don't they? An extra challenge.

    Lucy, thank you for that Blog post with information! Still would like to know, when these images will be fixed? I mean, do we get fixed images to classify? 😃

    That is a good question, while some may enjoy the "square" others will possibly find it to be a distraction ! 😃

    Hi Guy's
    sorry to take so long to respond. Unfortunately the patch only fixes the camera so that future pictures will be normal, no way to fix the ones already taken so we are stuck with the square for this season. Hopefully it will be fixed for season 11.
