Report of a lion training and survey in northern Cameroon
2004 Full Book
This report covers the second edition of the West and Central African Lion Conservation Course, organised in Garoua, Cameroon, from 4 to 21 April 2004. This course was jointly organised and funded by CML, EdF, SDH and the Van Tienhoven Foundation (VTS). The programme consisted of three parts. The main part of the course was taught in the first week. One element, however, could only be taught in the third week due to the limited availability of the teachers. This was an actual survey of lions and hyenas in Benoue National Park, and a demonstration of biopsy darting and an explanation of lion immobilisation by a veterinary doctor. The week in between these two events was used to perform a lion and hyena survey in Bouba Ndjida National Park.
