2000年2月1日至4月9日，迈阿密阿西里克·潘项目（MAPP）在西非的塞内加尔对黑猩猩的西部亚种（Pan troglodytes verus）进行了调查。除了Niokolo Koba国家公园（PNNK）的Assirik地区外，还对公园的南部和东部地区进行了调查。利用黑猩猩所做的巢来估计黑猩猩的分布和密度。在PNNK内，黑猩猩的平均数量估计为0.13只/平方公里。在PNNK以外以及公园内调查的10个地点中，有9个记录了黑猩猩的巢穴。PNNK外记录了994个黑猩猩筑巢的数据，而公园内记录了736个巢穴。在PNNK以外调查的地区，如Bandafassi，Tomboronkoto和Segou，巢密度与巢集中的栖息地的Assirik相当（即，万年青画廊森林）。MAPP的目的是启动对塞内加尔东南部黑猩猩的长期研究，作为20世纪70年代斯特林非洲灵长类动物项目（SAPP）的后续行动。我们试图复制SAPP项目制定的标准，除非技术创新允许改进数据收集程序（例如，全球定位系统（GPS））。Am.

A survey of the western subspecies of chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes verus) was conducted from 1 February to 9 April 2000 in Sénégal, West Africa, by the Miami Assirik Pan Project (MAPP). In addition to the Assirik area of the Parc National du Niokolo Koba (PNNK), areas south and east of the park were surveyed. Nests made by chimpanzees were used to estimate chimpanzee distribution and densities. Within the PNNK, chimpanzees were estimated to occur at an average of 0.13 individuals/km2. Chimpanzee nests were recorded in nine of 10 locales surveyed outside of the PNNK, as well as within the park. Data on 994 nests made by chimpanzees were recorded outside the PNNK, while 736 nests were recorded inside the park. Nest density in areas surveyed outside the PNNK, such as Bandafassi, Tomboronkoto, and Segou, was comparable to that of Assirik in habitats where nests were concentrated (i.e., evergreen gallery forest). The purpose of MAPP was to initiate long‐term research of chimpanzees in southeastern Sénégal, as a follow‐up to the Stirling African Primate Project (SAPP) of the 1970s. We sought to replicate the standards set by the SAPP project, except when technological innovations allowed improvement in data collection procedures (e.g., the global positioning system (GPS)). Am.
