Big ZRCP representation at the winter meeting of @primatesocietygb.bsky.social in Cardiff! Check out some photos from their presentations below!

Great talk by @hannahfrog.bsky.social yesterday at @beps-bangor.bsky.social seminars! Full house and an interesting discussion of her preliminary findings on the ZRC physiological responses to habitat disturbance!

The spongy creatures cleaning Zanzibar's oceans As ocean temperatures rise, women in Zanzibar turn to natural sea sponge farming to stay afloat.

Beautifully filmed piece about sponge farming along Zanzibar’s coast from the BBC.

Working on our brochures and poster about the colobus!

Team photos from the last few days. In the field following the colobus and on the pitch playing a friendly students v field assistants football game.

Catching up with our Zanzibari collaborators at ZALIRI on the parasitology project- with Othman and his team. Owen and Hannah sharing some results from the lab work done in 2023 and 2024.

Back for more parasitology lab work at ZALIRI!

Many congratulations to Molly Allum! She studied the crop foraging behaviour of the Zanzibar red colobus here in Jozani last year for her third year dissertation at @bangoruniversity.bsky.social @beps-bangor.bsky.social ! Great dissertation - currently working on making it into a journal article!

We're delighted to announce the winner of our most recent Undergraduate Primatology Recognition Award: Molly Alum. 🎉

Camp Group foraging in the shambas (agro-fallow fields) this evening

An afternoon in the shambas following Camp Group: @alexvgeorgiev.bsky.social @hannahfrog.bsky.social and @owenstorer.bsky.social

PhD students @hannahfrog.bsky.social from UCSB and @owenstorer.bsky.social from @bangorcosepgr.bsky.social chilling at our Jozani base discussing colobus science and such.

A single young female passing through camp this morning to nibble on some foliage. She might be at an age where shes looking to join a new group and moves around on her own for a bit.

We are now on @bsky.app! Follow us for updates on our work in the field, studying the endangered and endemic Zanzibar red colobus monkeys!! #primates #primatology
