Beschreibung
The Kibale National Park (KNP) has become a major focus for tourism and research due to its high density and diversity of primates. The park however has a complicated history characterized by different management regimes and anthropogenic disturbances. Chimpanzee-based tourism was initiated at KNP in early 1990s with different objectives including income generation for management and enlisting local peoples support for conservation through benefit sharing. This study examines in detail the impact of tourism on community attitudes towards chimpanzee conservation around Kibale National park.
