In 1973, Takayoshi Kano, a Japanese primatologist, traveled across a vast area of the Congo Basin with a bicycle and found Wamba village to be a promising site to start his first studies on wild bonobos. Since then, many researchers from Japan and all over the world have been working at Wamba, now the longest standing study site, to uncover various aspects of the ecology and behavior of this most recently identified great ape species. The researchers study bonobo behaviors and carry out various activities for the conservation of bonobos. They also conduct anthropological studies of local people who live with bonobos and believe them to be distant relatives from the same family, living in the forest. This book is published in commemoration of 2023 marking the 50th year of study. The main chapters are contributed by active researchers studying bonobos and the local people at Wamba. The book also includes contributions from various eminent researchers who have carried out short-term research or have supported research at Wamba, which helps place these studies of bonobos in a broader primatological or anthropological perspective. This book will be a useful resource for professional researchers in primatology and anthropology, as well as graduate or undergraduate students interested in these research fields. . 410 0$aSocial Sciences Series 606 $aZoology 606 $aEcology 606 $aAnimal behavior 606 $aHuman evolution 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching 606 $aZoology 606 $aBehavioral Ecology 606 $aEvolutionary Anthropology 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aEnvironmental Studies 615 0$aZoology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aAnimal behavior. 615 0$aHuman evolution. 615 0$aAnthropology. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching. 615 14$aZoology. 615 24$aBehavioral Ecology. 615 24$aEvolutionary Anthropology. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aEnvironmental Studies. 676 $a599.885 700 $aFuruichi$b Takeshi$0972631 701 $aIdani$b 'ichi$01592045 701 $aKimura$b Daiji$01592046 701 $aIhobe$b Hiroshi$01592047 701 $aHashimoto$b Chie$01592048 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910806198203321 996 $aBonobos and People at Wamba: 50 Years of Research$94451071 997 $aUNINA
