| Research Abstract |
Chimpanzees are the closest relatives of human beings and it takes a relatively long time for them to get pregnant. We studies wild chimpanzees in the Kalinzu Forest Reserve in Uganda. While we observed them directly, we conducted a pregnancy test using pregnancy test kit for humans. From 2009, we started a preliminary study on hormone dynamics of wild chimpanzees using non-invasive samples, such as urine and feces.
