Nancy, we appear to have accidentally deleted your comment regarding chimpanzee populations in the park, but Dave reports the following:

"We estimate there are approximately 500 chimpanzees in the Goualougo Triangle study area. The overall density of apes in the area is 1.53 chimpanzees per square kilometer and 2.34 gorillas per square kilometer."

I wonder how many chimpanzees live in the now-protected Triangle area?

Dave and Crickette,
Met you way back in 2001 when I was visiting with a group from WCS Living Landscapes, and I have always cherished the conversations I had with you both! Thanks for all of your hard work and efforts and congratulations -
