<!-- 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.

The Mabi Yaya Nature Reserve (RNMY) was created from the merging  of two forests classified under the management of SODEFOR. These are the former Mabi classified forest with an area of 59,614 ha and the former Yaya classified forest with an area of 23,873 ha. Administratively, the RNMY is located in the Mé Region and is straddling the departments of Alépé (through the sub-prefectures of Aboisso-Comoé, Alépé, Alosso and Danguira) and Yakassé Attobrou by the sub-prefecture of Biéby. It is limited in its northeast ridge by the Sous - prefecture of Bettié. While subject to strong pressure from loggers, poachers and cocoa farmers, initiatives have been carried out since 2016 by the Mé Regional Council and NGOs, such as Nitidae, as part of the Mé REDD+ Project in order to safeguard this national heritage that constitutes these forests.<br>

In 2019, following all these actions and with the support of a large majority of the local population, the government decided by Decree No. 2019-897 of October 30, 2019 to create the Mabi Yaya Nature Reserve with an area of 61,282.559 ha. This decision concretizes the commitment of the Ivorian government to implement its New Strategy for the Preservation, Rehabilitation and Extension of Forests. <br>

It is crossed in its northwest part by the Mabi River and extends along the Comoé River in its eastern part to the Kossan River in the southwest. There are certain large dispersers of forest tree seeds, such as the elephant (''Loxodonta africana''), the chimpanzee (''Pan troglodytes''), the monkeys ('Cercopithecus' spp and '' Colobus'' spp), hornbills (''Ceratoymna'' spp, ''Bycanistes'' spp, ''Tropicranus albocristatus'', ''Tockus semifasciatus''), large forest duikers, bush pig, etc. Among the reptiles, there are Broad-fronted Crocodiles, which are vulnerable according to the IUCN due to poaching and the destruction of ecosystems, as well as pythons and the vipers. In the class of birds, around 170 species are found in the region.

Ape status

The 2021 national forest wildlife inventory documented 2 chimpanzee vocalizations in the reserve. Observation of chimpanzees on 29/06/2023 by camera trap set by OIPR and the NGO NITIDAE. A total of 4 individuals (an adult female, a juvenile, an adolescent male and an adult male) were observed (Soiret pers. comm. 2023).

Threats

The small chimpanzee population is threatened by deforestation due to the clearing and cultivation that took place when the reserve was created. There is also poaching and the risk of zoonosis due to contact between wildlife and humans (OIPR 2021). In September 2023, 20 people were detained by OIPR agents for hunting illegally in the reserve.

Conservation activities

OIPR is responsible for monitoring the site. The site's ecological monitoring protocols and the monitoring operation plan have been drafted and will be validated before the end of 2022. The NGO NITIDAE, with funding from the World Bank, will be responsible for raising awareness. The site management plan is currently being drafted (Soiret pers. obs. 2023).
