Etude préliminaire de l'influence des disponibilités alimentaires et des activités humaines sur l’utilisation spatiale de l’habitat par les chimpanzés et les bonobos by Victor Narat, Marie Cibot, Jean Christophe Bokika Ngawolo, Richard Dumez, Sabrina Krief

“…Human activities in the home range of bonobos are more diversified, with several traditional activities (culture, gathering, hunting with nylon snares) and the encounter rates of human signs is higher (2,3 signs/km, 48 km) than in Uganda (1,84 signs/km, 74,5 km)In the future, increased habituation, detailed habitat characterization including spatial and phenological monitoring of Ape food, especially terrestrial herbaceous vegetation and interviews of a larger sample of local persons will allow performing a detailed spatio-temporal analysis of habitat use by bonobos and chimpanzees.Such studies may provide a better understanding of the adaptability of these species and their representation by local human communities to propose appropriate conservation strategies including improvement of local people well-being and wealth.…”
