West Africa > Nigeria > Shasha Forest Reserve
Summary
- Nigeria-Cameroon chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes ellioti) might be present in Shasha Forest Reserve.
- The population size is unknown.
- The chimpanzee population trend is decreasing.
- The site has a total size of 90 km².
- Key threats to chimpanzees are logging
- Conservation activities are not documented.
- Part of the reserve was de-gazetted for oil palm plantations and cocoa farms.
Site characteristics
Shasha Forest Reserve is located in the state of Osun, Nigeria. The site is contiguous with Omo Forest to the south. Originally 120 km2, 30 km2 in the northern portion of the reserve were de-gazetted for oil palm plantations and cocoa farms (Greengrass 2006).

Habitat types | Plantations, subtropical/tropical heavily degraded forest |
IUCN habitat categories Site designations
Ape status
A 2006 survey did not find any direct or indirect evidence of chimpanzees occurring in the site. Chimpanzees have not been directly observed in several years, and due to increasing logging and habitat disturbance, the population is likely to be decreasing or already extinct (Greengrass 2006).

Threats
The main threat to wildlife in the reserve is illegal, uncontrolled logging (Greengrass 2006).
