Gastrointestinal symbionts of free-ranging western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla)
Original language description
Critically endangered western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) inhabit wide geographical range, but in comparison with less numerous eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei) data about their gastrointestinal (GIT) symbiont fauna (in broader meaningparasites, commensals and mutualists) are rather scarce. From 2007 to 2011 we studied GIT symbionts of free-ranging western lowland gorillas in Dzanga Ndoki National Park, Central African Republic, Dja Faunal Reserve and Campo Ma?an National Park, Cameroon. The aims of the study were: in Dzanga Ndoki National Park to (i) evaluate the impact of individual host traits (sex, age) on symbiont infections (ii) study temporal changes of symbiont infections (iii) compare symbiont communities among the groups indifferent stages of habituation (iv) assess the impact of season on symbiont infections. We also compared GIT symbiont communities of gorilla populations in Dzanga Ndoki, Campo Ma?an and Dja Faunal Reserve. Using standard coproscopic met
