Dog’s Camouflage “Human Blind” Allows Undetected Observation

A local dog named Mort has invested in a “human blind,” which allows him unprecedented insight into the human world. The camouflaged perch enables him to observe humans in their natural habitat without being detected.

“On the one hand, he’s gathering a lot of really great data and hasn’t been noticed yet,” said Amelia Trager, a researcher at Duke University where Mort is a post-doc. “On the other hand, though, I mean, I’m a human, so I’m not sure how much I’ll learn from his observations that I don’t already know.” 

Mort set up his blind in the upstairs bathroom of the house he rents with three human roommates and has been observing their morning routines undetected for the past two weeks.
