Yep Greg. the elephants were killed off in the south -- Maniema but still a population in the north. The bonobo population, on the otherhand, can not be understood through poaching pressure. Thanks Cleve!

Interesting. Looks like the Elephants are concentrated in the north, whereas the Bonobos are more abundant in the south of Lomami. Interesting.

By the way we do have hope -- we really do -- that a park of the Lomami will be created.

Are these forest elephants of eastern D.R. Congo any different morphologically from the forest elephants of West Central Africa? Are there "bais"--openings in the forest-- that the elephants use to find salts and bathe as they do in the forests of R. Congo and southwestern C.A.R.?
