Preuss's red colobus

A rapid assessment of Preuss’s red colobus (Piliocolobus preussi) abundance and hunter preferences in northern Korup National Park: Ikenge, Cameroon.

I frame ecological data with ethnographic assessment of the human community living within the forest, with a focus on bushmeat hunters.

Terminalia acuminata

Guarajuba (Terminalia acuminata), is one out of three Brazilian plants declared Extinct in the Wild by the IUCN Red List. Rediscovered in 2015, this distinctive tree survives as several discrete subpopulations within the city of Rio de Janeiro. While the rediscovery gives cause for optimism, the extant population is in urgent need of research and evidence-based action to save it from the brink of extinction.
