Opis:
Study on the distribution and abundance of kob (Kobus kob) in Borgu Sector Kainji Lake National Park was carried out. The studies was undertaken to derive information on the abundance of kob in Kainji Lake National Park and also determine the distribution of kob, in the area. The methodology employed in the study includes the use of direct method of census. Line transects was established using a stratified random sampling procedure. The data collected were analyzed using the formula - Total Population Ý = R·Z and the program DISTANCE. The result gathered revealed that each of these habitats contains ample number of kob throughout the year. The total estimated population of kobs censured in all the unit area = 9432 kobs /3970.02 km2, while the mean estimated population density is 0.09 ± 0.05 per km2, and the mean estimated population was 392 ± 210.11. There is therefore a 95% certainty that the true population size lies between 109.78 and 107.15 confidence limit. There is a high significant different at (P < 0.05) between the habitat types on kob abundance between the various habitat types in KLNP. The distribution of the kobs indicates that they are clumped in distribution, having an average cluster size of 14.617 in wet season and 18.067 in the dry season,. In a nut shell if the kobs herd is maintained in the reserve. Eco-tourism based on kobs watching to yield economic benefit to Kainji Lake National Park, Niger state and the Nation at large will be achieved. Therefore there should be extended mentoring programme to all the sectors of the park. This will go a long way to check illegal activities such as over grazing, poaching and tree logging that is affecting kobs population in Kainji Lake National Park.

Opis:
Assessment of abundance and distribution of Patas monkey in Kainji Lake National Park (Zugurma sector) was carried out from March to July, 2019. Data were collected using direct sighting (Census by Ground Survey Method) and line transect method using the existing jeep tracks. The location was transverse in the morning between (7:00 and 11:00 a.m.) and in the evening (16:00 to 18:30 p.m.), binocular was used for viewing of animals. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of table and frequency count. The spatial distribution of Patas monkey (Erythrocebus patas) in the study area revealed that Mayara track had the highest percentage (32.2%), followed by Abubakar mashegu track with (27.1%) while Etsu usman track recorded the least percentage (16.9%). It also indicates that month of April had the highest number (20) while the month of July 2019 recorded the least one with (8). The population structure revealed that female had the highest frequency 34, followed by male recorded frequency with 25 while young had the least frequency 15. The food eaten by Patas monkey in the study area are Cercocephalis laurifolis, Piper guineenis, Vitelaria paradoxa, Tarminrandus indica, Annona senegalensis and Ficus species, respectively. The forage utilization showed that seed is the most utilized part of the plant they feed on. Human wildlife conflicts could be a major setback for the conservation of this animal as these animals migrate to support zone community’s agricultural farm to feed on their crops during the dry season and cause a lot of damage to their corps. This can make the supporting zone community to have a negative attitude towards the conservation of Patas monkey.

Opis:
Habitat destruction and poaching has been a major threat to wildlife species. In Kainji Lake National Park, the present population of Pangolin (Phataginus tetradactyla) is not certain. Therefore, this study documents the distribution and abundance of Pangolin in Borgu Sector of Kainji Lake National Park. Data were collected using the line transect method for a period of five (5) months. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and displayed in the form of tables, chart and graphs. The findings show that Awwal Ibrahim tract had the highest percentage (29.7%) of observation of pangolin during the five month period of study (March– July, 2018), and the least observation was sighted in Gilbert child and Mamud Lapai tracks - with 16.2%, respectively. The month of March had the highest number of observation (10) and the month of June had the least number of observations (5). The Population structure of pangolin (P. tetradactyla) revealed that adult recorded the highest observation (26) and the least observation was recorded among young individuals (11). The vegetation distribution of pangolin revealed that riparian forest recorded the highest percentage (29.7%) of sightings, followed by Isoberlina doka woodland and Acacia complex (18.9%, respectively) while the least was Detarium microcapum areas - with (16.2%). Our study also revealed that in the different activities carried out by pangolin, running recorded the highest observation (14), followed by feeding (11) and the least was resting (4). The study recommended that, the park authority should intensify anti-poaching patrols so as to stop humans from entering the park and to minimize indiscriminate deforestation, bush burning and farming activities in the area, so as to allow wildlife to have enough cover and feed for survival.

Opis:
The importance of trees in the environment cannot be overemphasized. This present study, therefore, deals with the distribution and relative density of trees species in Kainji Lake National Park. Data were collected using plot sampling techniques. Therein, a 50 by 50 m2 plot was randomly laid. Within each sample plot, data on all trees ≥ 10 cm in diameter at breast height were enumerated. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The result shows that different types of plants species were enumerated in the selected plots. This included six families of trees: Fabiaceae, Caesalpiniaceae, Rubiaceae, Maliaceae, Annonaceae and Mimosaceae. The percentage score of tree species in the four plots reveals that Afzelia africana recorded the highest with a total number of 60 species, followed by Detarium macrocarpium with 47 species, while Anogeissus leiocarpus and Azadirachta indica recorded 31 and 17 species, respectively. Gardenia aqualla was the least species recorded. The density and relative density of Afzelia africana recorded the highest, with 1.2ha and 26.9%, followed by Detarium microcarpiuum with 0.94ha and 21.1%, respectively, while Gardenia aqualla was the least with 0.02 ha and 0.4%. In terms of mean height, Daniela oliveri recorded the highest, with 28.1m, followed by Afzelia africana with 21.8%, while Azadirachta indica was the least with 5.8%. The mean DBH of Entada africana and Anogeissus leiocarpus recorded was 28.7cm and 28.1cm, while Prosopis africana and Accacia gournmaensis recorded 14.0 and 13.4, respectively, which were the least. The Types of wild animal species that are associated with the tree species includes Baboon, Kob, Grim duiker, Francolin, Patas monkey etc. Relative abundance of the animal species shows that Papio anubis recorded the highest with 40.5 individuals, while Erythrocebus patas recorded the least with 2.5 individuals.

Opis:
Crop raiding activities of primates around Kainji Lake National Park (Borgu Sector), Nigeria was investigated with the use of questionnaires, complemented with field survey focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. One hundred (100) questionnaires were administered to representatives of households in four selected support zone villages. Group discussions were then conducted in the villages. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of percentages, frequencies and charts. We found that crop raiding and animal depredation were sources of conflict in Kainji Lake National Park (Borgu Sector). The primates raiding farmlands identified by the farmers were Olive Baboon (Papio anubis), Patas monkey (Erthrocebus patas), green monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops) and other primates that could not be identified by the farmers. The largest percentage of raiding (40%) was perpetrated by Papio anubis, followed by Patas monkey (35%) and the least by Green Monkey (2%). The result showed that maize was the most commonly ranked crop of seasonal harvest that was lost. Moreover, an estimated 3-5 50 kg bags of seed were being destroyed in the planting season. The most effective strategy the local communities used in preventing crop damage was watch guarding (70%). Other methods were fencing (60%), hunting (45%), scare crow (36%) and toxic chemical (5%). The mitigation measure advocated by nearly all respondents (57%) was the killing of destructive wildlife species, irrespective of conservation significance. Measures must put in place to educate these communities about wildlife conservation and to prevent wanton killing. The communities should also be compensated for their loss, as this will lead to positive attitudes to wildlife conservation.

Opis:
Salt licks play an important role in the health of wildlife by supplying the essential minerals required especially for herbivores. This study assessed nine mineral salt lick sites, fauna utilization and tree species diversity in response to threats encountered at the site. Systematic random sampling, quadrat sampling and transect survey were used as the methodological indices to carry out the research. The dominant tree species is Anogeissus leiocarpus while recessive species was Vitellaria paradoxa. Fauna distribution and abundance within and across mineral salt lick sites were observed. Kobs (Kobus kob) were highest while Tantalus monkey (Chlorocebus tantalus) and Warthog (Phacochoerus aethiopicus) had least encounter rate. Park management should implement conservation education, stringent policies against wildlife offences and constant surveillance to conserve biodiversity in protected ecological site. The overall benefits derived from salt licks for wildlife health, majorly through herbivores are crucial in maintaining a healthy wildlife community for their reproduction and survival.

Opis:
This study focused on bird species richness and diversity in Borgu sector, Kainji Lake National Park, Nigeria. The study was undertaken to derive information on the species of birds utilizing the study area, and to determine the relative abundance and diversity of birds in the study area. The Line transect methods was used for the study. The result revealed that the present number and kinds of birds species in all the ranges sampled is very low, with Range 4 having the highest bird’s species richness of (22.29%). A total of 3255 birds were inventoried in all the ranges. These belonged to 44 species from 28 families. Family Ardeidae contain the highest number of 593 birds, followed by the family Sturnidae and Numididae - having 392 and 351 birds, respectively. The findings indicate that birds’ abundance is very low with many bird species displaying 0% relative abundance. The low abundance and diversity of birds indicates that Kainji Lake National Park birds in relation to habitat characteristics is very poor. Furthermore, the result from the test prediction Output shows that the estimators predict that (after 5 samples) there will be 41 birds’ family species in the habitat in future, since they (ACE, ICE, Chao2, Jack2) level off at 41. The result indicate that only the same birds species, instead of new birds species are presently seen in Kainji Lake National Park, which are poorly represented among 28 families sampled. It is, therefore, recommended that environmental education campaign on birds’ conservation and protection should be carried out in the communities around the park so as to persuade residents to stop killing birds.

Opis:
This research work centered on a survey of road kill along two major transportation routes to access the level of road fatality between the routes. A total number of ninety-five (95) questionnaires were administered – forty-eight (48) for park staff and security personnel and forty-seven (47) for road transport workers (kainji – lumma and kainji – ibbi) branch. The data was analyzed using table and simple percentage. Both routes had significant numbers of road kill - mostly reptiles (69% of the total). Our research also revealed that the wild animals were affected most by human habituation/feeding. Furthermore, 73% of the respondents believe that wildlife signage can be used to reduce rate of road mortality, while 27% choose road-warning signs. The study shows the need for proper mitigation measures and also for the application of modern methods of monitoring road activities and for managing wildlife habitats.
