Disease, Health and Ape Conservation

doi:10.1017/9781009071727

This fifth volume of State of the Apes brings together original research and analysis with topical case studies and emerging best practice to further the ape conservation agenda around disease and health. It provides an overview of relevant disease and health issues and explores factors such as the ethics of intervening in and managing ape health; the impact of research and tourism on apes; the One Health approach; and disaster management and the protection of apes. It shows how the welfare of apes is interrelated with that of the people who share their habitats, while also demonstrating the benefits of integrating ape conservation in health, socioeconomic activities (such as in the extractive industries, industrial agriculture and infrastructure development), and regulatory policy and practice at all levels, from the local to the international. This title is also available as Open Access via Cambridge Core.

‘State of the Apes provides a comprehensive overview of ape disease and health and the relevance of these topics to ape conservation. … The book provides a balanced and nuanced discussion of a diverse range of topics, including the One Health paradigm as it relates to ape health and conservation, the costs and benefits of ape tourism and habituation, and a discussion of ape health and ethics. … I commend the editors and authors for their efforts to make this information widely and freely accessible and for their coordinated efforts in compiling all the current information on the status of the apes.’
