From the snub-nosed monkeys of China to the mountain gorillas of central Africa, our closest
nonhuman relatives are in critical danger worldwide. A recent report, for example, warns that …

Available information on the consumption of wild meat in West and Central Africa is
reviewed. We show that mammals are the prime source of bushmeat, and that ungulates …

1. Density estimation is of fundamental importance in wildlife management. The use of
camera traps to estimate animal density has so far been restricted to capture-recapture …

We calculated extraction and production rates of bushmeat species in two main tropical,
moist‐forest regions, the Amazon and Congo basins. Extraction was estimated from the …

Tropical moist forests in Africa are concentrated in the Congo Basin. A variety of animals in
these forests, in particular mammals, are hunted for their meat, termed bushmeat. This paper …

Although most antelope species still exist in large numbers in sub-Saharan Africa (some in
hundreds of thousands), up to three-quarters of the species are in decline. Threats to their …

Mammals are characterized by the complex adaptations of their dentition, which are an
indication that diet has played a critical role in their evolutionary history. Although much …

We reviewed and analysed patterns and between-site variation in hunter-kill profiles of
mammals in tropical moist forests in west and central Africa. Published data from 36 sites in …

Wild meat harvests in African moist forests are presumed to exceed production, even in the
case of traditional societies still using rudimentary hunting methods. Though some …

Day range (daily distance traveled) is an important measure for understanding relationships
between animal distributions and food resources. However, our understanding of variation …
