Africa

This publication shows the hunting and trapping methods of Afrikan peoples in two volumes that are bound together.

The Swedish Zoological Expedition to Central Africa 1921 was organized chiefly for the purpose of exploring the fairly unknown mountain range, that has formerly been known the Mfumbiro Mountains. The following paper is based upon the Ornithological Collections made during the expedition.

This publication contains information about a safari of the author and his experiences during it. This includes various hunts and encounters with animals and people. 

Dans cette publication il ya des familles, des genres et des espèces des reptiles écailleux et des batraciens malgaches de Madagascar que l'auteur connus. 

The Harvard African Expedition of 1926-1927 was planned for the purpose of making a biological and medical survey of Liberia, which apparently was that country of Africa about which the least was known in those respects. It was also planned, after the survey was completed, to cross the continent of Africa from the west to the east coast, travelling particularly through the Belgian Congo, and to make comparative studies in these regions. This program was carried out. This publication is the result of this expedition.

This book can be thought of as a new publication of all the books about the game and hunting in Africa at the time of publication. Hunting with a rifle is not the main focus of this book, but rather the life of an animal catcher.

"Cette publication fait progresser nos connaissances relatives à la géo-botanique du Congo Belge, une des branches de la science botanique dont il peut être tiré d'utiles conclusions pour la mise en valeur rationnelle d'un pays neuf."

Ranging from forests in Senegal to the Zanzibar Archipelago, red colobus monkeys (Piliocolobus spp.) are the most threatened group of African monkeys. According to the IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM in 2020, every form of red colobus monkey is threatened with extinction, and 14 of the 18 taxa (>75%) are listed as Critically Endangered or Endangered. Despite their conservation status, only a few populations have been studied in any detail and the general public is largely unaware of these monkeys and their plight.
