Bonobo (Pan paniscus) Density and Distribution in Central Africa's Largest Rainforest Reserve
Conservation measures require accurate estimates of density and abundance and population trend assessments. The bonobo ( Pan paniscus ) is considered Endangered in the IUCN Red List. This classification assumes that available population data are representative. However, with only 30% of the bonobo’s historic geographical range surveyed, reliable information is needed to assess the species' population status. Here, we use information from 13 surve…
Anthrax in Western and Central African great apes
During the period of December 2004 to January 2005, Bacillus anthracis killed three wild chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes troglodytes ) and one gorilla ( Gorilla gorilla gorilla ) in a tropical forest in Cameroon. While this is the second anthrax outbreak in wild chimpanzees, this is the first case of anthrax in gorillas ever reported. The number of great apes in Central Africa is dramatically declining and the populations are seriously threatened b…
Use of a tool‐set by Pan troglodytes troglodytes to obtain termites ( Macrotermes ) in the periphery of the Dja Biosphere Reserve, southeast Cameroon
At the northern periphery of the Dja Biosphere Reserve (southeastern Cameroon) we recorded a new use of a tool‐set by Pan troglodytes troglodytes to prey on Macrotermes muelleri , M. renouxi , M. lilljeborgi , and M. nobilis . We recovered 79 puncturing sticks and 47 fishing probes at 17 termite nests between 2002 and 2005. The mean length of the puncturing sticks (n = 77) and fishing probes (n = 45) was 52 cm and 56 cm, respectively, and the mea…
