Description
| - Critically endangered western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) inhabit wide geographical range, but in comparison with less numerous eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei) data about their gastrointestinal (GIT) symbiont fauna (in broader meaning parasites, commensals and mutualists) are rather scarce. From 2007 to 2011 we studied GIT symbionts of free-ranging western lowland gorillas in Dzanga Ndoki National Park, Central African Republic, Dja Faunal Reserve and Campo Ma?an National Park, Cameroon. The aims of the study were: in Dzanga Ndoki National Park to (i) evaluate the impact of individual host traits (sex, age) on symbiont infections (ii) study temporal changes of symbiont infections (iii) compare symbiont communities among the groups in different stages of habituation (iv) assess the impact of season on symbiont infections. We also compared GIT symbiont communities of gorilla populations in Dzanga Ndoki, Campo Ma?an and Dja Faunal Reserve. Using standard coproscopic methods (sedimentation and flotation) and coprocultures we detected 9 symbiont taxa, five of them were protists and four helminths. We neither detect the effect of age or sex nor temporal changes in symbiont infections in the habituated group. We found seasonal differences only in strongylid nematodes. We did not record the impact of habituation on symbiont communities. The GIT symbiont fauna across the study sites was comparable.
