Abstract
Bushmeat hunting contributes to the decline of primate species across Africa; however, few
in land-use patterns and economic drivers may enhance threats to primates in Muslim dominated
Park (HNNP) is one of only two national parks in the Republic of Guinea. The park is one of the
of high conservation priority for ungulates and the western subspecies of chimpanzee. This study
several markets in and around the HNNP, (2) analyse the evolution of the bushmeat trade since
area. Local market assessments were conducted across four village markets and in Faranah, one
of 46 species and 22 families on markets surveyed over a 7 month period spanning both the dry
in the bushmeat trade helped identify more recent drivers of the bushmeat trade in the
crop-foraging and local microcredit systems in exacerbating the presence of primate species sold
future research, this study emphasises the growing risks facing primates as targets for bushmeat
complied with the International Primatological Society (IPS) Guidelines for the Use of Nonhuman
Primates in Research.
