<!-- INSTRUCTIONS FOR UPLOADING SITE INFORMATION
- Wiki pages contain information in paragraphs, tables, lists, and images.
- Text and images are not restricted, and their formats can be chosen as desired.
- Tables and lists are extracted as data, so the following restrictions apply to them:
1) Table structure cannot be changed.
2) List format should not change, i.e. they are comma separated lists, not bullet points or numbered lists.
3) To make information comparable across wiki pages, keywords must be taken from the list of permitted words, or added to the list of permitted keywords. This is why we use official lists, e.g., IUCN classification lists, in our tables.

[[West Africa]] > [[Sierra Leone]] > [[Jaibui Island]]
= Summary = <!-- An overview of the site, with one sentence for each section. May include a site map -->
* Western chimpanzees (''Pan troglodytes verus'') are present in Jaibui Island.
* It has been estimated that 3 (CI: 2-6) individuals occur in the site.
* The chimpanzee population trend is stable.
* The site has a total size of 12.5 km².
* Chimpanzees are mainly threatened by the extraction of natural resources on the island.
* Conservation activities have focused on biomonitoring and environmental education.

The Jaibui Island is located in Pujehun District – Southern Sierra Leone (UTM 29, X: 238199; Y: 823787); its closest seven human communities, Boma, Sahun, Kambama, Gbengama, Baoma Ngeya, Sembenhun and Taninahun, use the island‘s resources. Over the time, the island has been owned and managed by the community members for the harvesting of local resources to meet their livelihood demands, until 2017 when Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary (TCS) entered into an agreement for co-management of the Island. Jaibui Island has a total area of 12.5 sq.km, surrounded by the Moa River, and shares its land borders with the GRNP in the east and Tiwai Island in the north. The two adjacent forest blocks are extensions of the Upper Guinea Forest considered one of the 35 global most important biodiversity hotspots (Klop et al., 2009). The most recent camera trap study carried out in Jaibui Island recorded 35 mammals, 11 birds and one reptile (Tortoise) species (Garriga 2019).

For the two surveys, results show a stable population thriving within the area. However, in 2019, alongside the transect survey, we did a camera trap survey, and we recorded a group of six chimpanzees, confirming the density estimate (Garriga & Kanneh 2022).

= Threats = <!-- a text overview of threats, followed by a table of key threats -->
The community situated close to the island presents a major threat to the biological resources thriving within the Island. The adjacent local communities with limited livelihood opportunities rely on artisanal mining and fishing both for commercial and subsistence uses as well as the extraction of NTFPs from the island at different times of the year to meet their livelihood demands. These and some other underlying issues pose threats to the conservation of chimpanzees and other wildlife of the Jaibui Island (Garriga & Kanneh 2022).

There is urgent research needed on certain areas of species conservation that can sustain and complement ongoing conservation initiatives and activities for the successful conservation of chimpanzees within Jaibui Island and neighbouring forest blocks. Strengthening collaboration with neighbouring protected area management (Tiwai Island and Gola Forest) of the Jaibui Island conservation area and assessing the seasonal movement patterns of chimpanzees among the three forest blocks (Tiwai, Jaibui and Gola) is also important, as well as culture and behavioural studies of chimpanzee within the Island, and interspecific association between chimpanzee and other primate groups occupying the Island considering food availability on the Island and habitat suitability as determinant parameters (Garriga & Kanneh 2022).
