Abstract:
Relatively little is known of social dynamics in forest elephants (Loxodonta africana cyclotis), although the fission-fusion model of sociality known in savanna elephants (Loxodonta africana africana) is used as a template. Until fission-fusion sociality or an alternative model is demonstrated, our understanding of how elephants use their environment remains incomplete. To date, there have been no published studies of associations between individuals in forest elephants. Direct observations of forest elephants made at forest clearings (bais) are used here as an approach to studying these quest

Abstract:
Abstract Elephants are widely recognized as ecosystem engineers. To date, most research on ecosystem engineering by elephants has focused on Loxodonta africana and Loxodonta cyclotis, and the role of Elephas maximus is much less well-known. We here report observations of anuran eggs and larva in water-filled tracks (n=20) of E. maximus in Myanmar. Our observations suggest that water-filled tracks persist for >1 year and function as small lentic waterbodies that provide temporary, predator-free breeding habitat for anurans during the dry season when alternate sites are unavailable.

Abstract:
Wildlife corridors between protected areas play a critical role in maintaining genetic flow between increasingly isolated populations of many species. The importance of wildlife corridors for African savanna elephants (Loxodonta africana) has been well investigated. However, African forest elephants (Loxodonta africana cyclotis) are difficult to observe in dense tropical vegetation and much less is known about their ecology than about their savanna counterparts. The Sangha River forms an international border between Cameroon, Central African Republic and Republic of Congo and bisects the biolo

Abstract:
Elephant numbers in Nigeria have decreased greatly and the rate of this decline cannot be established owing to the insufficiency of available data. The number of forest elephants in particular is especially difficult to determine because of the dense vegetation where they occur, and previous attempts have resulted in the reporting of conflicting estimates. This article describes current efforts to establish the status of forest elephants under ongoing projects for sustainable forest management in some protected areas in southwestern Nigeria. These studies report on the spatial distribution and

Abstract:
The Dzanga-Sangha Forest Reserve contains the highest known population density of elephants remaining in the dense forest zone of Africa. Both Loxodonta africana africana and L.a. cyclotis as well as an intergrade between the two exist in the area. The ecological effects of the elephants in the forests are discuss. Elephant population density in the sub blocks of the study area as determined by dung counts is presented. Large scale poaching in part may account for the different density figures but should be considered along with the availability of water, type vegetation and human land use. A

Abstract:
In recent years meat has been the premis behind poaching in Garamba NP. Patrol records suggest 70-80% of the poachers are Sudanese, often SPLA deserters, and the rest are Congolese. The significant increase in poaching in 1997 during the first DRC war was related to the fact that the guards were disarmed by occupying military forces and so had no control over poaching. There was no increase during the second DRC war, 1999-2000, although the Park headquarters was occupied by Ugandan-backed rebel forces, the personnel were not disarmed and there was little disruption to their anti-poaching effor

African elephants (Loxodonta africana and L. cyclotis) are important species for geospatial study given their ecological role as megaherbivores, their large home ranges which pose challenges for conservation, and the ongoing ivory crisis. Using GPS tracking data, I address five research topics that contribute new information to the geospatial analysis of tracking data, to elephant movement ecology, and conservation : 1.

Abstract:
The first comprehensive genetic study of central African forest elephants (CAEs) is presented here based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and nuclear microsatellite loci. MtDNA analysis revealed low genetic divergence between most groups. Haplotype distribution was not correlated with geographical localities, indicating high levels of gene flow. Two divergent haplogroups, illustrated by a bimodal distribution of pairwise differences in the control region, implies that secondary contact and ongoing introgression has occurred between populations expanding from at least two putative glacial refugia.

Abstract:
Forest elephant (Loxodonta africana cyclotis) sociality is relatively little-studied due to the difficulties of making direct observations in rainforests. In Central Africa elephants aggregate at large natural forest clearings known as bais, which have been postulated to offer social benefits in addition to nutritional resources. This thesis explores the role of these clearings as social arenas by examining bai use within three main themes; ecology, sociality and risk factors. Seasonal changes in elephant use of the Maya Nord bai (Republic of Congo) are described, along with the demography of

L’éléphant de forêt africain se différencie de l’éléphant de savane par plusieurs caractères morphologiques, écologiques et moléculaires. Contrairement à ce dernier, il a été très peu étudié, bien qu'il soit menacé par la chasse et la destruction de la forêt primaire. Nous avons entrepris une étude de la biologie de cet animal, en profitant de deux sites naturellement ouverts au sein de la grande forêt, à savoir une zone de savanes, marais et bosquets à la Lopé, et une clairière riche en sels minéraux à Langoué. À la Lopé, nous avons analysé le choix des habitats par les animaux en recensant l

Abstract:
African elephants are known to survive in habitats with ambient temperatures from below 0°C to about 50°C, implying that they may be exposed to great thermal challenges, especially in hot regions of Africa, where they are common. Thermoregulatory behaviour of the African forest elephant in its natural habitat and the microclimates that it utilizes have not previously been investigated. To understand how such an enormous animal behaves in the hot, humid natural forest environment, I investigated microclimates at forest-savannah interfaces (bais) in Lobeke National Park in Cameroon, observed for
