• Factors Affecting Nesting Site Choice in Chimpanzees at Tshibati, Kahuzi-Biega National Park: Influence of Sympatric Gorillas (2002, background): “Kahuzi chimpanzees usually chase monkeys in aggressive encounters and occasionally prey on them (Basabose and Yamagiwa, 1997), as they do elsewhere (Boesch and Boesch, 1989; Goodall, 1986; McGrew et al., 1979; Nishida et al., 1983; Sugiyama and Koman, 1987).”
• Ecological and social influences on the hunting behaviour of wild chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii (2006, background): “Wild chimpanzees have a diet composed chiefly of fruit and leaves, but they also capture and eat a variety of mammals, birds and other vertebrates (Wrangham 1977; Nishida et al. 1979; Goodall 1986), preying most frequently upon red colobus monkeys, Colobus badius (Uehara 1997; Mitani & Watts 2001)”
• Risk-prone hunting by chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii) increases during periods of high diet quality (2007, unknown): “Both at Ngogo and Mahale Mountains National Park, Tanzania, hunting frequency was high during periods when ripe fruit was plentiful (Mahale: Nishida et al. 1979; Takahata et al. 1984; Ngogo: Mitani and Watts 2001; Watts and Mitani 2002a, b).”
• Cultural differences in army ant predation by West African chimpanzees? A comparative study of microecological variables (2008, background): “East African chimpanzees catch and eat not only arboreal monkeys, but also young bushpigs and duikers (Mahale, Tanzania, Nishida et al. 1979; Gombe, Goodall 1986; Ngogo, Uganda, Mitani & Watts 1999), whereas Ta€ı chimpanzees have never been observed to catch bushpigs (Boesch & Boesch 1989) and they ”
