Illegal Hunting and Chimpanzee Distribution in the Seringbara Region of the Mount Nimba Strict Nature Reserve: A Multi‐Scale Modelling Approach

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We modelled multi‐scale habitat use for chimpanzee feeding/travelling, nesting, and human hunting in the Seringbara region of Mount Nimba (Guinea) using GPS data with GLMs and boosted regression trees. Chimpanzee activity concentrated above 750 m on steeper slopes with high EVI, hunting was less prevalent in dense tree cover, both avoided research ...
