Common use of Population Monitoring Clause in Contracts

Population Monitoring. Though the presence of gorillas has been confirmed at eleven localities in Nigeria and Cameroon, the total area habitually used by gorillas remains unclear. Surveys in recent years have shown that the gorillas occupy significantly larger areas of habitat than had been assumed, but data from a number of sites, particularly in lowland areas, remain limited. Ongoing monitoring at all known gorilla localities is needed to better understand the gorillas‟ ranging patterns, map core habitat areas, and evaluate the impacts of hunting and other human disturbance. A regular research presence at the gorilla sites would also contribute to protection, community outreach, and community benefits from employment.
