The Fongoli chimpanzees have been under research since initial surveying in 2001 (Pruetz et al. 2001), and males have been fully-habituated to researcher presence since 2005. The chimpanzee community ranges in size between 28 and 36 individuals. Density estimates for the site have also been formally conducted in 2013 (0.29 indiv./km²), although they underestimated true chimpanzee densities at the time (0.35 indiv / km²; Wessling et al. in review).
