Equatorial Guinea Home to the Fourth Highest Species Richness of Primates in Africa Including Many Endemic Subspecies U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Equatorial Guinea Home to the fourth highest species richness of primates in Africa including many endemic subspecies. Unsustainable hunting is the single greatest threat to the majority of wildlife in Equatorial Guinea’s forests. Equatorial Guinea’s national development plan, Horizonte 2020, has led to rapid infrastructure development which also represents a severe threat to the country’s wildlife and their habitat. New road network exacerbate commercial bushmeat hunting and trade by increasing access to forests and urban bushmeat markets. Higher income among the urban elite and a lack of suitable alternative protein options and jobs in rural areas is leading to an increase in bushmeat demand.

Prospect St., Burlington VT, 05452, USA Ph: 802-656-0173 Fx: 802-656-8015 Email: [email protected] 1 ABSTRACT While there is considerable literature on the adverse effects of oil development on developing economies through “Dutch Disease” or “Resource Curse” hypotheses, studies have neglected to pose the question in terms of positive causal factors that certain kinds of oil development might produce. We do not dispute the potential for negative effects of certain kinds of oil development but rather propose that some of the negative causality can be managed and transformed to lead to positive outcomes. Using a comparative study of oil company behavior in Angola and Equatorial Guinea, the research detects three main factors that have affected the behavior of oil companies since the Earth Summit in 1992. First, there is a growing movement of corporate social responsibility in businesses due to changes in leadership and corporate culture. Second, the ‘globalization’ of environmental movements has affected the behavior of companies through threats of litigation and stakeholder action. Third, governments in Africa have increasingly become stricter in regulating companies for environmental and social issues due to a transformation of domestic norms and international requirements.

The Soviets evidently believe that the victory of a Soviet-supported national liberation movement has increased Soviet prestige in the Third World. The Soviets probably hope that Angola—where a substan- tial Cuban presence will probably remain for some [Omitted here is text unrelated to Africa.] time—may also assist the USSR in providing Soviets an entree to other national liberation movements in southern Africa—such as SWAPO. In October 1976 the Soviets signed a treaty of friendship and coopera- tion to consolidate their political position. In addition, they may hope to obtain access to port and air facilities as an alternative to those in Guinea. 95. Mozambique.

Date of signature: ........................ I. BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION In line with the FAO/World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) Global Strategy for the Progressive Control of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), this project has been developed to provide support to the regional grouping of West African countries to strengthen emergency preparedness against the eventuality of HPAI being introduced into this currently free area. There is growing evidence that the avian influenza, which has been responsible for serious disease outbreaks in poultry and humans in several Asian countries since 2003, is spread through a number of sources, including poor biosecurity at poultry farms, movement of poultry and poultry products and live market trade, illegal and legal trade in wild birds. Although unproven, it is also suspected that the virus could possibly be carried over long distances along the migratory bird flyways to regions previously unaffected (Table 1) is a cause of serious concern for the region. Avian influenza subtype H5N1 could be transported along these routes to densely populated areas in the South Asian Subcontinent and to the Middle East, Africa and Europe.
