Competing Interests
The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: Distell (PTY) Ltd made a donation to UKZN for research on elephant conservation. This is a social responsibility donation, and is not their core business. There are no restrictions on publication from this work. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
