<!-- 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.

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).

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).

West Africa > Nigeria > Shasha Forest Reserve

Summary[edit]

Loading map...
  • 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[edit]

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).

Ape status[edit]

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).
