Orang-utans are increasingly found outside of protected areas, in forests and agriculture lands that are exploited by people. By better understanding how and to which extent the species can adapt to man-made landscapes, we will be in a position to design better conservation strategies for the species.

The objective of this project is to assess, monitor and model the population dynamics of the current Black rhino population in Majete Wildlife Reserve and to determine the carrying capacity of the reserve for the species prior to further re-introductions. This will include determining territory and home range establishment, calving rates, distances travelled to find suitable browsing, and the overall health of the founder population

Human-orangutan conflict is a serious and growing threat to this critically endangered species. As farmlands encroach into forest areas, orangutans become trapped and isolated, often resorting to crop-raiding for survival. This project evacuates orangutans in danger, returning them to safe forests, works with farmers to reduce and avoid the causes of conflict, and supports law enforcement for the protection of orangutans and their forests.

The project will observe behaviour of Ateles fusciceps rufiventris living in connected forest and will compare with Ateles geoffroyi azuerensis's data previously collected in fragmented habitat.
We will obtain group structure and population dynamic data by direct observations and camera traps located at canopy. Variables resultants will lead futures plan of management for monkeys living in fragmented forest.

Conservation education is seen as a priority long-term action for the conservation of chimpanzees and wildlife. Nature clubs can play a vital role in changing attitudes towards the intrinsic value of wildlife. The WCF created nature clubs called Club P.A.N. in schools around Tai National Park / Côte d’Ivoire and schools in Boké / Guinea as a long-term conservation approach oriented towards the next generation.
