well theres no rainforests in south africa. maybe we need to determine what kind of habitat they have where they are originally from.

-"The animals were collected at a rocky ridge with low vegetation and few
bushes. They hide under stones. As clouds shift against the mountains
in 1300m, humidity condenses at the vegetation an lichens and provide a
slightly higher humidity as in the sourrounding environment. In winter
the temperature drops near freezing point and raises to 40°C in Summer. "

Sorry I forgot, -"The locality is: Republic of South Africa, Northern Province, Western
Soutpansberg (Mountain Range) approx. 50km W Louis Trichardt, Farm Lajuma.

nice one... that'll helps a lot. So they probably hibernate in Winter and possibly aestivate or at least go dormant at the height of summer. It sounds like a drier environment is in order also, because although the humidity would be raised as you say, there doesn't sound enough vegetation to be really humid.
