  • Wildlife Monitoring and Conservation in a West African Protected Area by Andrew Cole Burton a Dissertation Submitted in Partial
    Wildlife Monitoring and Conservation in a West African Protected Area By Andrew Cole Burton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Justin S. Brashares, Chair Professor Steven R. Beissinger Professor Claire Kremen Professor William Z. Lidicker Fall 2010 Wildlife Monitoring and Conservation in a West African Protected Area © 2010 by Andrew Cole Burton ABSTRACT Wildlife Monitoring and Conservation in a West African Protected Area by Andrew Cole Burton Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy and Management University of California, Berkeley Professor Justin S. Brashares, Chair Global declines in biological diversity are increasingly well documented and threaten the welfare and resilience of ecological and human communities. Despite international commitments to better assess and protect biodiversity, current monitoring effort is insufficient and conservation targets are not being met (e.g., Convention on Biological Diversity 2010 Target). Protected areas are a cornerstone of attempts to shield wildlife from anthropogenic impact, yet their effectiveness is uncertain. In this dissertation, I investigated the monitoring and conservation of wildlife (specifically carnivores and other larger mammals) within the context of a poorly studied savanna reserve in a tropical developing region: Mole National Park (MNP) in the West African nation of Ghana. I first evaluated the efficacy of the park’s long-term, patrol-based wildlife monitoring system through comparison with a camera-trap survey and an assessment of sampling error. I found that park patrol observations underrepresented MNP’s mammal community, recording only two-thirds as many species as camera traps over a common sampling period.

  • Birding Tour to Ghana Specializing on Upper Guinea Forest 12–26 January 2018
    Birding Tour to Ghana Specializing on Upper Guinea Forest 12–26 January 2018 Chocolate-backed Kingfisher, Ankasa Resource Reserve (Dan Casey photo) Participants: Jim Brown (Missoula, MT) Dan Casey (Billings and Somers, MT) Steve Feiner (Portland, OR) Bob & Carolyn Jones (Billings, MT) Diane Kook (Bend, OR) Judy Meredith (Bend, OR) Leaders: Paul Mensah, Jackson Owusu, & Jeff Marks Prepared by Jeff Marks Executive Director, Montana Bird Advocacy Birding Ghana, Montana Bird Advocacy, January 2018, Page 1 Tour Summary Our trip spanned latitudes from about 5° to 9.5°N and longitudes from about 3°W to the prime meridian. Weather was characterized by high cloud cover and haze, in part from Harmattan winds that blow from the northeast and carry particulates from the Sahara Desert. Temperatures were relatively pleasant as a result, and precipitation was almost nonexistent. Everyone stayed healthy, the AC on the bus functioned perfectly, the tropical fruits (i.e., bananas, mangos, papayas, and pineapples) that Paul and Jackson obtained from roadside sellers were exquisite and perfectly ripe, the meals and lodgings were passable, and the jokes from Jeff tolerable, for the most part. We detected 380 species of birds, including some that were heard but not seen. We did especially well with kingfishers, bee-eaters, greenbuls, and sunbirds. We observed 28 species of diurnal raptors, which is not a large number for this part of the world, but everyone was happy with the wonderful looks we obtained of species such as African Harrier-Hawk, African Cuckoo-Hawk, Hooded Vulture, White-headed Vulture, Bat Hawk (pair at nest!), Long-tailed Hawk, Red-chested Goshawk, Grasshopper Buzzard, African Hobby, and Lanner Falcon.

  • Cosmetics and Personal Care PRODUCTS CLUSTER Diagnostic
    June 2020 1 Readers Guide: This is a combination of two reports on a diagnostic study on the cosmetics and personal care value chains in Ghana. The first part of the report focused on the southern and middle clusters. The scope of the Cosmetics and Personal Care Products (CPCP) CDS was preceded by a complete Value Chain Analysis (VCA) of the sector. The diagnostic assessment was to validate the issues identified from the VCA. The CDS covered two selected clusters (i.e. cosmetics products production and black soap processing) within the middle and southern belts of Ghana. Read details of the Southern and Middle cluster report via link: Southern and Middle Cluster diagnostic report The study on the Northern Cosmetics cluster focuses on the cosmetic value chain that uses as part of its raw materials, shea butter, baobab oil, moringa oil and other indigenous oils to formulate different kinds of cosmetic products. The study was limited to only two regions in northern Ghana namely; Northern Region and Upper East Region although the other northern regions (Upper West, North-East and Savannah) also produce the same quantities and quality of shea nuts and butter.

  • Cites Periodic Review of the Status of African Lion Across Its Range
    Original language: English AC27 Doc. 24.3.3 CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA ____________ Twenty-seventh meeting of the Animals Committee Veracruz (Mexico), 28 April – 3 May 2014 Interpretation and implementation of the Convention Species trade and conservation PANTHERA LEO - REPORT OF KENYA AND NAMIBIA This document has been prepared by Samuel Kasiki, PhD (Kenya), Africa Regional Representative to the CITES Animals Committee, and Elly Hamunyela (Namibia)1. CITES PERIODIC REVIEW OF THE STATUS OF AFRICAN LION ACROSS ITS RANGE Background information At its 25th meeting in July 2011, the CITES Animals Committee approved the inclusion of African lion (Panthera leo) in the Periodic Review and agreed that this Review should be conducted expeditiously. Kenya and Namibia volunteered and were accepted to conduct this Periodic Review by the 26th meeting of the CITES Animals Committee (March 2012). In accordance with Resolution Conf 14.8, on Periodic Review of the Appendices, Kenya and Namibia requested input from range States and other stakeholders regarding African lions. A call for information was sent out to all range States for the African lion on 27 October 2011 with set timelines for the production of the consolidated report. The request for information was directed to the CITES Management Authorities as contacts of the range States and to the African lion experts known to have studied the species in its range. Specifically, range States were requested to send in electronically, their reports to Dr. Samuel Kasiki (Kenya) and Ms. Elly Hamunyela (Namibia), on the status of their respective national populations by 27 December 2011 following which, received information would be compiled and shared with the range States for any further input and validation before submission to the Animals Committee.

  • Kakum Natioanl Park & Assin Attadanso Resource Reserve
    Kakum Natioanl Park & Assin Attadanso Resource Reserve Kakum and the Assin Attandanso reserves constitute a twin National Park and Resource Reserve. It was gazetted in 1991 and covers an area of about 350 km2 of the moist evergreen forest zone. The emergent trees are exceptionally high with some reaching 65 meters. The reserve has a varied wildlife with some 40 species of larger mammals, including elerpahnats, bongo, red riverhog, seven primates and four squirrels. Bird life is also varied. About 200 species are known to occur in the reserve and include 5 hornbil species, frazer-eagle owl, African grey and Senegal parrots. To date, over 400 species butterflies have been recorded. The Kakum National Park is about the most developed and subscribed eco-tourism site among the wildlife conservation areas. Nini Suhien National Park & Ankasa Resource Reserve Nini Suhien National Park and Ankasa Resources Reserve are twin Wildlife Protected Areas that are located in the wet evergreen forest area of the Western Region of Ghana. These areas are so rich in biodiversity that about 300 species of plants have been recorded in a single hectare. The areas are largely unexplored but 43 mammal species including the bongo, forest elephant, 10 primate species including the endangered Dina monkey and the West African chimpanzee have been recorded. Bird fauna is also rich. The reserves offer very good example of the west evergreen forest to the prospective tourist. The Mole national This park was established in 1958 and re-designated a National Park in 1971. It covers an area of 4,840 km2of undulating terrain with steep scarps.

  • Human Demography and Reserve Size Predict Wildlife Extinction in West Africa Justin S
    doi 10.1098/rspb.2001.1815 Human demography and reserve size predict wildlife extinction in West Africa Justin S. Brashares1*, Peter Arcese1 and Moses K. Sam2 1Centre for Applied Conservation Biology, University of British Columbia, 3041^2424 Main Mall,Vancouver, British Columbia, CanadaV6T 1Z4 2Ghana Wildlife Division, PO Box M.239, Ministry Post O¤ce, Accra, Ghana Species^area models have become the primary tool used to predict baseline extinction rates for species in isolated habitats, and have in£uenced conservation and land-use planning worldwide. In particular, these models have been used to predict extinction rates following the loss or fragmentation of natural habitats in the absence of direct human in£uence on species persistence. Thus, where direct human in£uences, such as hunting, put added pressure on species in remnant habitat patches, we should expect to observe extinction rates higher than those predicted by simple species^area models. Here, we show that extinction rates for 41 species of large mammals in six nature reserves in West Africa are 14^307 times higher than those predicted by models based on reserve size alone. Human population and reserve size accounted for 98% of the observed variation in extinction rates between reserves. Extinction occurred at higher rates than predicted by species^area models for carnivores, primates and ungulates, and at the highest rates overall near reserve borders. Our results indicate that, where the harvest of wildlife is common, conserva- tion plans should focus on increasing the size of reserves and reducing the rate of hunting. Keywords: edge e¡ect; extinction; human population; mammals; reserve size; species^area relationship extinction rates for 41 species of large mammals in six 1.
