ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, the author of this study thanks the many respondents to the questionnaires, including Convention on International Trade of Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) Management Authorities and other governmental, non-governmental organization (NGO), and academic stakeholders. Without their input, much of this report and the draft recommendations for pangolin conservation in West Africa would not be possible. Similarly, without the herculean efforts of all the authors for the recently published Pangolins: Science, Society, and Conservation book, compiling much of the available information on pangolins in West and Central, and globally, would have been a much more difficult task. We thank Daniel Challender, Chair of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Species Survival Commission (SSC) Pangolin Specialist Group for his constant availability for helpful discussions and thought about pangolins and conservation in West Africa, and for his thorough review of a draft of this report. Michael Balinga deserves special recognition for motivating this work within United States Agency for International Development’s (USAID’s) West Africa Biodiversity and Climate Change (WA BiCC) program, and for his efforts reviewing drafts and compiling maps. Ichu Ichu Godwill and Keri Parker provided additional information on key regional stakeholders. Karim Abdul Firdaus and Kofi Panyin on the WA BiCC team created the maps throughout. Mary Molokwu and Wing Crawley provided very informative discussion about the state of conservation in Liberia, including additional information about the structure and function of the Species Working Group. We sincerely hope that the many stakeholders for pangolin conservation in West and Central Africa find this document, and the associated Issues Brief and Roadmap for Pangolin Conservation in West Africa, to be a solid springboard from which to launch pangolin conservation and management action in earnest in the region.

    AUTECOLOGY OF THE SUNDA PANGOLIN (MANIS JAVANICA) IN SINGAPORE LIM T-LON, NORMAN (B.Sc. (Hons.), NUS) A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE 2007 An adult male Manis javanica (MJ17) raiding an arboreal Oceophylla smaradgina nest. By shutting its nostrils and eyes, the Sunda Pangolin is able to protect its vulnerable parts from the powerful bites of this ant speces. The scales and thick skin further reduce the impacts of the ants’ attack. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My supervisor Professor Peter Ng Kee Lin is a wonderful mentor who provides the perfect combination of support and freedom that every graduate student should have. Despite his busy schedule, he always makes time for his students and provides the appropriate advice needed. His insightful comments and innovative ideas never fail to impress and inspire me throughout my entire time in the University. Lastly, I am most grateful to Prof. Ng for seeing promise in me and accepting me into the family of the Systematics and Ecology Laboratory. I would also like to thank Benjamin Lee for introducing me to the subject of pangolins, and subsequently introducing me to Melvin Gumal. They have guided me along tremendously during the preliminary phase of the project and provided wonderful comments throughout the entire course. The Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) provided funding to undertake this research. In addition, field biologists from the various WCS offices in Southeast Asia have helped tremendously throughout the project, especially Anthony Lynam who has taken time off to conduct a camera-trapping workshop.

To control the disease in an area, it is important to know the geographical distribution. In this study, spatial distribution of porcine cysticercosis in southern Benin was performed. By using the number of partial organ seizures at meat inspection, the study has revealed high risks of porcine cysticercosis in administrative districts of Aplahoue, Dogbo, Klouekanme and Lokossa. The proportion of seizures ranged from 0.06% for neck muscles to 0.69% for tongues.
