Note Primates living in Kibale National Park (KNP), in forest fragments (Fragment) and in Tana River National Primate Reserve, Kenya (TRNPR). “Communities” refers to the human settlements surrounding the forest fragments. RC, red colobus; BWC, black-and-white colobus; RT, red-tailed guenon; BO, cattle; SH, sheep; PIG, pigs; GT, goats.
