Natural Resources and Conflict in Africa is a treasure of scholarship and insight, with great depth and thoroughness, and it will put us in Abiodun Alao’s debt for quite some NATURAL RESOURCES time to come.” —Amos Sawyer, Co-director, Workshop in Political Theory and Policy Analysis, Indiana University AND CONFLICT “As extensive in information as it is rich in analysis, Natural Resources and Conflict in Africa IN AFRICA should help this generation of scholars appreciate the enormity and complexity of Africa’s conflicts and provide the next generation with a methodology that breaks down disciplinary boundaries.” —Akanmu G. Adebayo, Executive Director, Institute for Global Initiatives, Kennesaw State University THE TRAGEDY “Abiodun Alao has provided us with an effulgent book on a timely topic. This work transcends the perfunctory analyses that exist on natural resources and their role in African conflicts.” OF ENDOWMENT —Abdul Karim Bangura, Researcher-In-Residence at the Center for Global Peace, and professor of International Relations and Islamic Studies, School of International Service, American University onflict over natural resources has made Africa the focus of international attention, particularly during the last decade.

  • Gorillas and Orangutans, Hand in Hand: a Study of Woodland Park Zoo’S Great Apes
    Gorillas and Orangutans, Hand in Hand: A Study of Woodland Park Zoo’s Great Apes In Memory of the Gentleman, Pete By Ylfa Muindi and Renée Rosette Advanced Inquiry Program Fall 2018 Miami University/ Woodland Park Zoo Gorillas and Orangutans, Hand in Hand 1 Abstract Is the exhibited manipulation complexity of primarily terrestrial great apes at Woodland Park Zoo greater or lesser than the manipulation complexity of primarily arboreal great apes at Woodland Park Zoo during foraging activity? There is current support that complex manipulation of objects is more developed in terrestrial species of primates than arboreal species of primates due to the musculature and skeletal design of arboreal primate hands. All great apes involved in this study are cared for at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, WA. This study was conducted on five Western lowland gorillas, three Bornean-Sumatran orangutan hybrids, and one Sumatran orangutan. Manipulation complexity was considered on a scale of complexity divided into four considerations: number of hands used, number of items being manipulated, synchronicity of digits, and synchronicity of hands. Both terrestrial great apes and arboreal great apes exhibited the ability to perform at the highest level. Both species exhibited the ability to perform fine manipulation within the hand and a similarity of diversity of maneuvers employed in the manipulation of an object. Highest quality animal welfare practices should address the intelligence, emotions, curiosity, and physical abilities of these species as well as these individual primates. Exploration with one’s hands is a vital element of primate perception and understanding of the world. Enrichment is an important tool to encourage this area of welfare and should be designed thoughtfully.
