Assessing the impact of hunting pressure on population structure of Guinea baboons (Papio papio) in Guinea-Bissau

2014-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Guinea baboons are heavily hunted for bushmeat consumption in Guinea-Bissau. We investigated whether hunting-driven mortality has affected population structure in this generalist primate using two genetic markers. Sampling was conducted in protected areas separated by anthropogenic landscape features. We predicted significant genetic differentiation between samples and investigated whether genetic discontinuities...
