It provides information about different aspects that should be taken into account when managing chimpanzees in captivity to ensure a healthy and self-sustaining population, helping to the development of a global “ex situ conservation” program. It also provides information ...
1 août 2018 · EAZA Best Practice Guidelines are produced by the various Taxon Advisory Groups (TAGs) to merge expert husbandry knowledge and make it widely available within and outside the borders of the EAZA community. The guidelines displayed below show best practice standards, which EAZA zoos aim at achieving. They have been compiled using a template and ...
Publications with best practice guidelines are as follows: Great Ape Tourism. Heath Monitoring and Disease Prevention in Great Ape Populations. Preventing and Mitigating Human-Great Ape Conflict. Surveys and Monitoring of Great Ape Populations. Re-introduction of Great Apes. Reduced Impact Logging. Great Apes and FSC.

One of the challenges facing great ape conservation is the rising level of interaction between humans and great apes, and the resulting conflicts that emerge. As human populations continue to grow and human development makes deeper incursions into forest habitats, such conflicts will become more widespread and prevalent in the natural ranges of gre...
Human-wildlife conflict is a well-known phenomenon. HGAC is a subset of human-wildlife conflict that can broadly be defined as ‘any human-great ape interaction which results in negative effects on human social, economic or cultural life, great ape social, ecological or cultural life or the con-servation of great apes and their environment’ (adapted...
For any conflict, whether crop-raiding, travel restriction, competition for water or other natural resources, or instances of attack on humans by great apes, it is important to acquire an under-standing of the spatial and temporal patterns of such events. It is also necessary to evaluate the seriousness of each conflict and assess whenever possible...
Anyone managing a HGAC situation is likely to be confronted with demands for compensation for damaged property and/or lost revenues. Issues of compensation should not overshadow dis-cussions of the many other measures that can be used to prevent and mitigate HGAC. Few data exist on HGAC compensation schemes, so we judge the likelihood of this count...
It is important to consider your position in the chain of responsibility when making decisions about HGAC. A major factor in the decision-making process is whether a person works near the HGAC area. People living in close geographical range (such as wildlife managers, villagers, researchers) should be able to consult regularly, and ideally decision...
It is clear that HGAC issues must be viewed from a range of perspectives, and placed in the context of local community and individual needs, as well as conservation objectives and those of the government and industry involved (Hill et al. 2002). What might seem like an appropriate intervention strategy to researchers may not necessarily be acceptab...
How did you or do you hear about HGAC in your area? From the affected people themselves? From a local leader or community representative? From a previous wildlife manager? From a researcher or technical expert? From a written report or via the media? Other? How reliable is your present information on HGAC? Is your information from a direct observer...
Do you know if there are temporal patterns of HGAC? Do you know how frequently HGAC incidents occur? Do you know if incidents vary with time of day? Do you know if incidents vary with season or crop availability? Do you have information for one season/multiple seasons? Do you have this information for one year/multiple years? Do the apes have alter...
Do you think you understand the attitude of people affected? Do you think people exaggerate HGAC problems (perceived vs. actual)? (Do they report more incidents than actually take place?) (Do people conceal incidents of HGAC?) (Do they report more serious damage than actually occurs?) (Do people understate damages caused by great apes?) (Do you thi...
Do you need to collect more data on HGAC in your area? About damage incidents? About the people affected? About the individual great apes implicated? About great ape populations in the area? About other wildlife conflicts? About measures which people currently use in HGAC situations? About measures which could be used in HGAC situations? What human...
What is your motivation for getting involved with HGAC? Obligation through formal employment? (To protect wildlife?) (To manage wildlife?) (To enhance agricultural development?) (To improve rural people’s livelihoods?) Required to research the problem — from what perspective? (Wildlife conservation?) (Agricultural?) (Effects on humans e.g., welfare...

These Best Practice Husbandry Guidelines follow the template suggested by EAZA for all their EEPs. The first section gives a detailed overview of our current knowledge on biology of the bonobo, based mainly on published research, to a lesser degree on information from PhD studies that were not always published or small articles from the “grey ...
Context of Guidelines The IUCN/SSC Primate Specialist Group Best Practice Guidelines for Great Ape Re-introduction is intended as a guide to assist great ape re-introduction programmes. Great apes include bono-bos (Pan paniscus), chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), gorillas (Gorilla gorilla and G. beringei), and orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus and P ...
