We’re happy to announce that in Sept 2023 Dr Barthélémy Ngoubangoye joined us as the co-director of the Mandrillus Project!

Barth is also the director of the Primate Center at CIRMF, Gabon and is specialised in parasitology and epidemiology in nonhuman primates.

So happy to have him on board!

Meet our current dedicated field team! Following mandrills in the dense equatorial forests of Gabon is a daily challenge.... but we are often rewarded by amazing behaviour spotting 🐒
