Although substantial populations are well documented in Western zoos, comparatively little is known about those in the East, despite their endemism to the region. Here, the status and distribution of orang-utans in Asian zoological institutions are outlined, accounting for 466 orang-utans at 77 institutions in 13 geographic locations. These comprise c. 41% of the total known global zoo population. Based on their combined experiences in the region, the authors then elucidate the challenges facing Asian zoos in their efforts to manage these species. Rather than focusing on the shortcomings, we instead choose to detail achievements to date. We conclude that a paucity of international attention does not constitute concomitant lack of progress: on the contrary, zoo professionals in Asian zoos have made significant advances in orang-utan care and – in terms of population management – are already on the precipice of world-leading standards that are soon expected to far outpace those of the West. Asian zoos have a significant role to play in orang-utan conservation, and their successes warrant international recognition and support.","PeriodicalId":92961,"journal":{"name":"The International zoo yearbook","volume":"52 1","pages":"150-163"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/izy.12178","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49545152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Worryingly, great apes are hunted for their meat despite being protected across their range. In this paper, we highlight the main actors involved in the trafficking of great ape meat around the Dja Biosphere Reserve (DBR) in Cameroon, and describe the commodity chain associated with the trade. In total, 78 hunters, porters, traders and consumers were interviewed. Hunters, all men, were primarily driven by profit, encouraged by middlemen, though some hunt for their own consumption. However, we identify that great ape hunting is undertaken by specialized hunters along a relatively short supply chain. Gorilla and chimpanzee meat is sold to restaurants and wealthy buyers via few intermediaries. The price of great ape meat varied at different stages of the chain. Middlemen obtained the greatest financial gain, whereas wholesale traders profited least. Movement of ape meat to markets was predominantly by public transport and facilitated by the use of vehicles that can pass through checkpoints without being examined. Based on our study we recommend potential interventions, including support of law enforcement, investments in conservation and development initiatives, and monitoring and research.","PeriodicalId":92961,"journal":{"name":"The International zoo yearbook","volume":"52 1","pages":"182-193"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/izy.12175","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43859554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such measures have become the state of the art when assessing the function of a given behaviour. Zoos provide opportunities for research of a kind that is difficult to undertake in the wild. In this article several advantages of studying captive animals are highlighted; for example, accessibility, ease of sample collection, control of environmental factors, long-term monitoring and known life histories, which can be tracked throughout the life of an individual. The data collected from such studies can be used to provide benchmarks for physiological and life-history features. To demonstrate the type of studies to which zoos can contribute, examples are given from work with Bonobos Pan paniscus and Chimpanzees Pan troglodytes. Such studies improve our basic understanding of physiological processes in these apes, which could be applied to other non-human primates. Data from zoo-living animals promote validation and refinement of methods, add information that may be difficult to obtain from wild specimens and provide the means by which to scrutinize specific questions in experimental settings. Such data can serve as a benchmark for studies on wild conspecifics and inspire field studies by providing novel tools for data collection.","PeriodicalId":92961,"journal":{"name":"The International zoo yearbook","volume":"52 1","pages":"34-47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/izy.12176","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48981821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Jasmi, R. Maguire","doi":"10.1111/izy.12172","DOIUrl":"10.1111/izy.12172","url":null,"abstract":"Great apes in captivity have been affected by a variety of conditions, including obesity, heart, gastrointestinal and dental diseases, and diabetes, all of which are at least influenced by an inappropriate diet. ‘Regurgitation and reingestion’ is also related to diet in great apes. Diets tend to be high in water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC) (e.g. sugars and starches) and low in fibre. This study aimed to reduce the WSC and increase fibre concentrations of great ape diets, most notably for Chimpanzees Pan troglodytes, Bornean orangutans Pongo pygmaeus, Sumatran orangutans Pongo abelii and hybrid orangutans, and Western lowland gorillas Gorilla gorilla gorilla, and evaluate the behavioural and physiological responses of these species to the dietary changes. Wildlife Reserves Singapore had 4.8 Chimpanzees, 10.5 Bornean orangutans, 5.3 Sumatran orangutans and 2.1 P. pygmaeus × P. abelii orangutan hybrids, and Longleat Safari and Adventure Park, UK, had 4.0 Western lowland gorillas. Behaviour was recorded via scan sampling throughout the diet-change process with a gradual decline in WSC. Five orangutans and two Chimpanzees were conditioned for finger pricking to monitor their blood-glucose concentrations. The new diets led to changes in WSC from 59·0–64·3% to 47·5–47·7% and in neutral detergent fibre from 11·5–14·4% to 15·7–22·9% on a dry-matter basis. These dietary changes significantly increased ‘travelling’, ‘foraging’ and ‘social affiliative’ behaviours, and decreased ‘inactivity’ and ‘abnormal behaviour patterns’, such as ‘regurgitation and reingestion’. Fasting blood glucose also decreased and, eventually, all great apes sampled had average blood-glucose levels. Orangutans had a stronger insulin response compared with Chimpanzees, which may reflect their feeding ecology.","PeriodicalId":92961,"journal":{"name":"The International zoo yearbook","volume":"52 1","pages":"48-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/izy.12172","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47578651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
