Collect genetic samples and record vocalizations from the major populations of mangabeys through out Tanzania and Kenya. These data will be analyzed to determine the degree of speciation of the respective populations and the extent of reproductive isolation and potential threats to survival due to loss of genetic variability.

No final report is available for this project.

Strategic Direction: 4 Establish a small grants program (all eligible sites) that focuses on Critically Endangered species and small-scale efforts to increase connectivity of biologically important habitat patches
