INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW The Niassa Carnivore Project (NCP) was founded in 2003 and serves to conserve large carnivores and their prey in Niassa Special Reserve (NSR, formally known as Niassa National Reserve, NNR) by promoting coexistence and through a shared respect for people, their culture, wildlife, and the environment. Our team values are respect (for each other and the environment); “Tsova-Tsova” (a Cyao term for meaning you push, I push), communication, inclusion, teamwork, and opportunities to learn. Why we should care Niassa Special Reserve is situated in northern Mozambique on the border with Tanzania and is one of the largest protected areas (42,200 km2; 16,000 ml2) in Africa. It is managed through a co- management agreement between the Government of Mozambique (National Administration of Conservation Areas (ANAC) with Ministry of Land, Environment and Rural development (MITADER) and Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS). The protected area supports the largest concentrations of wildlife remaining in Mozambique including an estimated 800 - 1000 lions, 300-350 African wild dogs as well as leopard and spotted hyaena. Free-ranging African lions have declined over the last century to fewer than 20,000 today (Riggio et al., 2012; Bauer et al., 2015; Dickman et al, in prep). Well managed protected areas, particularly large protected areas like NSR that can support more than 1000 lions, are critically important for future recovery efforts for lion conservation (Lindsey et al., 2017). These types of landscapes are becoming increasingly rare. NSR remains one of the 6 strongholds for lions, spotted hyaenas, leopards and African wild dogs left in Africa today.

Accurately monitoring fine- scale spatial and temporal trends in land-use and tree-cover is increasingly used for monitoring the ecological state of conservation areas. Here we provide essential information on land-use changes in NNR to support ongoing conservation efforts in the region. We examined patterns of forest and woodland loss in NNR between 2001 and 2014 using high resolution maps of global tree-cover change, and compared this with changes in the wider region. We found that NNR lost 108 km2 of forest (0.9 per cent of its 11,970 km2 aggregated forest extent), with the majority (89 km2) of forest loss occurring due to expanding agriculture around settlements and along main roads.

Associate editor: Daniel Falush Thenewlygenerateddatawillbemadeavailableforacademicresearch use through the ArrayExpress database (accession number available on request). Abstract The Bantu expansion, which started in West Central Africa around 5,000 BP, constitutes a major migratory movement involving the joint spread of peoples and languages across sub-Saharan Africa. Despite the rich linguistic and archae- ological evidence available, the genetic relationships between different Bantu-speaking populations and the migratory routes they followed during various phases of the expansion remain poorly understood. Here, we analyze the genetic profiles of southwestern and southeastern Bantu-speaking peoples located at the edges of the Bantu expansion by generating genome-wide data for 200 individuals from 12 Mozambican and 3 Angolan populations using 1.9 million autosomal single nucleotide polymorphisms.

Niassa Carnivore Project
ANNUAL REPORT 2015 Niassa Carnivore Project Promoting Coexistence between Carnivores and People 1 MISSION STATEMENT PROMOTING COEXISTENCE BETWEEN CARNIVORES AND PEOPLE IN NIASSA NATIONAL RESERVE, MOCAMBIQUE The Niassa Carnivore Project serves to secure and conserve lions and other large carnivores (leopard, spotted hyaena and African wild dog) in Niassa National Reserve, northern Mozambique by promoting coexistence between carnivores and people and directly mitigating threats. We acknowledge the costs to Niassa communities who live with carnivores while recognizing the potential of these carnivores to provide substantial ecological, cultural and economic benefits to Niassa Reserve and Mozambique. In collaboration with Niassa Reserve Management Team 2 EXTENDED SUMMARY Niassa National Reserve (NNR) is located in northern Mozambique on the border with Tanzania. It is both one of the largest protected areas (42 000 km2; 16000 ml2) and most undeveloped places in Africa. The protected area supports the largest concentrations of wildlife remaining in Mozambique including at least a third of the national lion population (1000- 1200 individuals out of a National population estimated at 2700 lions) and more than 350 African wild dogs. Free-ranging African lions (Panthera leo) have declined over the last century to fewer than 24,000 today (Riggio et al., 2012; Bauer et al., 2015). While lions are still listed as vulnerable across their whole African range, in the majority of their range, particularly in Eastern Africa, they meet the criteria for Endangered (Bauer et al. 2015). The Niassa Reserve lion population is one of only 5-6 populations of 1000 lions or more left in Africa today and is of global and national conservation importance.

This expedition offers a unique insight into one of Africa’s last great wilderness areas. The vast Niassa Reserve in Northern Mozambique covers a staggering 42 000km2 and is incredibly important to Africa’s conservation efforts. The reserve is home to significant populations of lion, elephant and African wild dog. Scenically spectacular, incredibly remote and home to a phenomenal conservation initiative - Niassa Carnivore Project - this expedition promises unsurpassed wilderness experiences, adventure and immersion in nature. Game viewing can be very exciting as we track down seldom seen species and the areas unique wildlife. Game viewing in this remote wilderness takes more time and effort than in more established safari destinations but it can be hugely rewarding and the birding is fantastic. Perhaps the greatest part of this trip is that the entire enormous concession is ours, and ours alone for the duration of the trip. You will not see another tourist! Our expedition offers unique insight into regional conservation challenges and successes and your visit contributes directly and significantly to the regions people and conservation. On this trip you will get to meet the Niassa Carnivore Project team who work tirelessly to protect Niassa. You will hear their stories, experience first hand their achievements and learn about the challenges they face in creating a just and sustainable model for conservation in Africa. • Unsurpassed wilderness experience • Inspirational conservation experience • Active and adventure safari • Amazing wildlife,
