Great Ape Conservation using
Global Forest Watch
Lilian Pintea

Mission:
the Jane Goodall Institute
promotes understanding and
protection of great apes and
their habitat and builds on
the legacy of
Dr. Jane Goodall, our
founder, to inspire individual
action by young people of all
ages to help animals, other
people and to protect the
world we all share.

Chimpanzees in Crisis
• Occur only in Africa
• Have suffered dramatic losses
- Perhaps 2,000,000 in 1900
- Currently fewer than 350,000
• Most live in countries such as DRC that
are plagued by war, poverty and have
difficulty with implementing conservation
strategies effectively
• Chimpanzees face four major threats:
- Habitat loss and fragmentation
- Illegal bushmeat and poaching
- Disease
- Illegal pet trade

Forest Watcher mobile app:
putting global forest data into the hands of local
decision-makers to inform conservation actions
Goal:
to improve forest conservation on
the ground by enabling local
stakeholders with limited and
occasional Internet connectivity to
access and use forest loss data
and support management
decisions.
