Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Thomas T. Struhsaker began his research in Africa in 1962 with a study of the behavioral ecology of vervet monkeys. Since then he has conducted biological field studies in 13 African nations and numerous countries in Latin America and Asia. From 1970 until 1988 he established, developed, and managed the field research station in Kibale, Uganda. His lobbying efforts in collaboration with many others eventually resulted in the creation of the Kibale National Park. Working in collaboration with numerous colleagues, he helped establish research and conservation programs of red Colobus, other primates, and forest ecology at 3 other important sites in East Africa: Tana River, Kenya; Jozani, Zanzibar; and the Udzungwa Mountains, Tanzania. His publications include two books: The Red Colobus Monkey (1975) and Ecology of an African Rain Forest (1997), and numerous scientific and popular articles and technical reports on ecology, conservation, and animal behavior.
