These other Hermanus troops are not known to be aggressive and are not as adapted to human interaction, although they will still enjoy a refuse bag or human food if available. The “Vogelgat Troop” inhabit the private Vogelgat Reserve to the East of Voelklip and move around in the vicinity, and sometimes onto the R43. “The Hamilton Russel Troop”, is seen regularly above the wine estate and towards the West of Hermanus. There is also believed to be a smaller ‘shy and elusive’ (wild and unhabituated) “Fernkloof Troop” living deep within the Fernkloof Nature Reserve. There may be other troops developing in the Hermanus area.
