Research Abstract

I studied non-human primates in the savanna woodland area, western Tanzania, eastern Africa. This area is composed of woodlands dominated by deciduous trees, evergreen forests, and grasslands. Animals originating from both of forest and savanna inhabited this area. While red colobus, red-tailed monkeys, and blue monkeys inhabited forests, savanna monkeys and yellow baboons inhabited woodlands. GIS analyses revealed that chimpanzees preferred forests and slopes, although they used both vegetations.
