Description

The chimpanzees of Gombe National Park, Tanzania, have been studied continuously since 1960. Data from this study, the longest running of great apes in the wild, is housed at Duke. Daily data collection at Gombe occurs during follows of a focal individual, with narrative notes of social interactions, feeding behavior, group movement, and party composition. Here, these data are digitized and organized into Microsoft Access. Researchers in the Pusey lab query the database to ask questions about ecology, sociality, and fitness.
