Staphylococcus spp and Antibiotic Resistance in Cave Versus City Bats in Gabon
Background: Antibiotic resistance is a major global health concern, yet its prevalence in wildlife remains poorly understood. Bats, due to their ecological diversity and mobility, can serve as indicators of environmental antimicrobial resistance. This study compares the diversity of Staphylococcus spp. and antibiotic resistance patterns between bats from a cave and an urban area in northeastern Gabon. Methods: A total of 655 bats were captured fr…
The Influence of Age, Sex, and Season on Hematological Parameters in a Captive Population of Former Laboratory Chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes )
This study aimed to establish a baseline hematological profile and examine the influence of age, sex, and season on hematological parameters in captive chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ) living in a humid tropical climate. Hematological parameters are a useful tool for assessing health status and diagnosing diseases in animals. We analyzed 473 blood samples collected from 84 chimpanzees (43 females and 41 males) during annual health checks, conducte…
Traditional ecological knowledge for great ape conservation in Gabon
Indigenous trackers in Gabon demonstrate near-perfect accuracy in differentiating great ape faeces, validating TEK as a robust, low-cost tool for primate monitoring. Integrating this expertise into participatory conservation programmes could expand surveillance outside protected areas, enhance early detection of demographic or health changes, and strengthen community stewardship of threatened ape populations
Identification of potentially zoonotic parasites in captive orangutans and semi‐captive mandrills
Cysts and trophozoites of vestibuliferid ciliates and larvae of Strongyloides were found in fecal samples from captive orangutans Pongo pygmaeus and P. abelii from Czech and Slovak zoological gardens. As comparative material, ciliates from semi‐captive mandrills Mandrillus sphinx from Gabon were included in the study. Phylogenetic analysis of the detected vestibuliferid ciliates using ITS1‐5.8s‐rRNA‐ITS2 and partial 18S ribosomal deoxyribonucleic…
Natural Non-Polio-Enteroviruses Detected in Captive Mandrills (Mandrillus sphinx) and Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes troglodytes) Housed in a Primate Center in Franceville, Gabon
Dental microstructure records life history events
Odontochronologies in male and female mandrills ( Mandrillus sphinx ) and the development of dental sexual dimorphism
OBJECTIVES: We examine how dental sexual dimorphism develops in mandrills, an extremely sexually dimorphic primate. We aimed to (a) establish the chronology of dental development (odontochronology) in male and female mandrills, (b) understand interindividual and intersex variation in odontochronologies, and (c) determine how dental sexual dimorphism is achieved. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We prepared histological ground sections from the permanent te…
Quantifying transmission by stage of infection in the field
The early stage of viral infection is often followed by an important increase of viral load and is generally considered to be the most at risk for pathogen transmission. Most methods quantifying the relative importance of the different stages of infection were developed for studies aimed at measuring HIV transmission in Humans. However, they cannot be transposed to animal populations in which less information is available. Here we propose a gener…
