			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><a href="http://helpsimus.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Pauline.JPG"><img style="float: left; border: 0px initial initial;" title="Pauline" src="http://helpsimus.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Pauline-300x225.jpg" alt="Pauline" width="300" height="225" /></a></span>Elle s&#8217;appelle Pauline Fresnais et est âgée de 23 ans. Dans quelques jours, elle part 2 mois sur le site du projet &laquo;&nbsp;bamboo lemur&nbsp;&raquo; (Vohitrarivo) réaliser une étude du comportement alimentaire et du rythme d&#8217;activité des 2 plus grands groupes (45 en 48 individus). Cette étude s&#8217;inscrit dans une étude plus globale de la capacité de l&#8217;habitat (annoncée précédemment), dont l&#8217;enjeu est de trouver un équilibre entre les besoins des villageois dont la survie dépend de l&#8217;exploitation de leurs terres et ceux des grands hapalémurs qui vivent dans les forêts de bambou.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> Avec le soutien de son partenaire Cap West, L&#8217;AFSGH a fiancé le billet d&#8217;avion de Pauline (Paris-Antananarivo) et le salaire de la guide qui l&#8217;accompagnera sur le terrain entre les les expéditions de suivi auxquelles elle se joindra.</p>
<p>L&#8217;AFSGH fournit également du matériel de camping pour le campement où Pauline s&#8217;installera.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Enfin avec le soutien de l&#8217;Association Francophone des Vétérinaires de Parcs Zoologiques (AFVPZ), L&#8217;AFSGH a pu acheter un nouveau GPS et une balance dont Pauline aura besoin pour peser les aliments consommés par les grands hapalémurs.</p>
<p><em><a href="http://helpsimus.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/DSC_0100.JPG"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1170" style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; float: left; " title="DSC_0100" src="http://helpsimus.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/DSC_0100-300x199.jpg" alt="DSC_0100" width="300" height="199" /></a></em></p>
<p>Pauline donnera quelques cours de français pendant son séjour pour les enfants mais aussi pour les adultes.</p>
<p>Nary Randrianarijaona, le représentant de l&#8217;AFSGH à Madagascar, l&#8217;accompagnera et restera quelques jours pour préparer la Journée Mondiale de l&#8217;Environnement (JME) qui aura lieu le 15 juin 2012 à Tsaratanana et dans laquelle l&#8217;AFSGH sera très impliquée (plus d&#8217;infos bientôt&#8230;).</p>

<p><em> </em> </p>
<p><em> </em> </p>
<p><em>Her name is Pauline Fresnais and she has 23 years old. In a few days, she goes to spend two months to the site of project &laquo;&nbsp;bamboo lemur&nbsp;&raquo; (Vohitrarivo). She will do a study of eating behavior and activity rhythm of the two largest groups (45 in 48 individuals). This study is part of a broader study of the capacity of the habitat (previously announced), whose challenge is to find a balance between the needs of villagers whose survival depends on the exploitation of their lands and those of greater bamboo lemurs living in bamboo forests.</em></p>
<p><em>With support of our partner Cap West, The AFSGH has funded the airfare of Pauline (Antananarivo-Paris) and the salary of the guide who will accompany her on the field between monitorings conducted by the project. </em></p>
<p><em>The AFSGH also provides camping equipment for the camp where Pauline will live.</em></p>
<p><em>Finally with the support of AFVPZ, The AFSGH could buy a new GPS and scales that Pauline will need to weigh food consumed by greater bamboo lemurs.</em></p>
<p><em>Pauline will give some French lessons during her stay for children but also for adults.</em></p>
<p><em><a href="http://helpsimus.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/DSC_0100.JPG"></a>Nary Randrianarijaona</em><em>, the representative of AFSGH in Madagascar,  will accompany her a few days to prepare  the World Environment Day (WED) to be held June 15, 2012 at Tsaratanana in which the AFSGH will be very involved (more info soon &#8230;). </em></p>

<p>Après le projet &laquo;&nbsp;bamboo lemur&nbsp;&raquo;, c&#8217;est le deuxième projet soutenu par l&#8217;AFSGH !</p>
<p>Ce projet a pour but la protection de la population de grand hapalémur récemment découverte dans la forêt de Vohibe (situé au confluent des rivières Nosivolo et Mangoro) gràce aux études de prospection réalisées en 2011  par The Aspinall Foundation et le Groupe d&#8217;Etude et de Recherche sur les Primates de Madagascar (GERP) et financées par l&#8217;AFSGH.</p>
<p>Les objectifs pour 2012 :</p>
<p>-Charger les communautés locales de diminuer les menaces sur les grands hapalémurs (identifiées en 2011 : chasse, perte et dégradation de l&#8217;habitat&#8230;)</p>
<p>-Organiser une équipe au sein des communautés locales  pour le suivi des populations de lémuriens et de la conservation at Vohibe</p>
<p>-Collecter des données sur la distribution, l&#8217;abondance, le régime alimentaire,&#8230;des grands hapalémurs à Vohibe</p>
<p>-Sensibiliser les communautés locales à la conservation de la forêt et autres problèmes environnementaux</p>
<p>-Réduire à long-terme les menaces à Vohibe en favorisant les activités de développement rural.</p>
<p>Ainsi 6 patrouilleurs seront recrutés dans les 5 &laquo;&nbsp;fokontany&nbsp;&raquo; (subdivision administrative de base) alentour Vohibe.</p>
<p>Objectifs de ces patrouilleurs :</p>
<p>-Détruire les pièges à lémuriens</p>
<p>-Signaler les activités illégales dans la forêt (coupe du bois ou culture  illégales par exemple)</p>
<p>-Suivre les groupes de grand hapalémur à et autour de Vohibe.</p>
<p>Ces patrouilleurs seront formés et supervisés par un primatologue malgache, Zaka Anselmo Andrianandrasana à l&#8217;origine des premières observations directes des grands hapalémurs à Vohibe.</p>
<p>Les résultats des suivis seront régulièrement présentés lors de réunions avec les communautés locales et les authorités locales.</p>
<p>Anselmo formera également 4 &nbsp;&raquo;animateurs&nbsp;&raquo; du projet  issus des communautés locales qui seront chargés d&#8217;organiser des activités d&#8217;éducation environnementale et de sensibilisation dans les écoles et les villages.</p>
<p>Le projet favorisera des activitiés de développement rural dans les communautés locales. Des &nbsp;&raquo; petits&nbsp;&raquo; projets facilement réalisables pour 2012 : distribution des médicaments contre la bilharziose (une maladie commune dans la région), la distribution d&#8217;haricots (source de protéine alternative) et  la  participation aux plantations de bambou pour les grands hapalémurs (augmentation des ressources alimentaires disponibles pour les animaux et sensibilation aux besoins de l&#8217;espèce).</p>
<p>Des échantillons de fécès seront également collectés pour les études génétiques et des échantillons de végétaux pour l&#8217;identication des plantes consommées par les grands hapalémurs à Vohibe.</p>
<p>Résultats attendus pour 2012 :</p>
<p>-Déterminer la distribution des grands hapalémurs à Vohibe, leur abondance, leur densité, leur régime alimentaire&#8230;et les menaces.</p>
<p>-Réduction immédiate des pressions de chasse sur les grands hapalémurs mais aussi sur les autres lémuriens à Vohibe</p>
<p>-Réduction probable de la destruction de l&#8217;habitat en chargeant les communautés locales de diminuer les activités illégales dans la forêt</p>
<p>-Réduction à long terme des menaces sur Vohibe par une meilleure sensibilisation des communautés locales à la conservation de la forêt et des lémuriens.</p>
<p>-Implication plus importante des communautés locales dans la conservation en favorisant des activités de développement rural</p>
<p>-Diffusion et Publications des résultats.</p>
<p>l&#8217;AFSGH peut continuer à soutenir cet important projet pour la conseravtion du grand hapalémur gràce à ses deux partenaires : Costwold Wildlife Park (UK) et Le Zoo de La Palmyre (FR).</p>
<p>Nous n&#8217;avons pas encore bouclé le budget pour 2012 ! Nous recherchons des partenaires pour nous aider à financer cet important projet (<a href="mailto:helpsimus@yahoo.fr">helpsimus@yahoo.fr</a>).</p>

<p>(à partir du rapport de/ from report of Anselmo Andrianandrasana)</p>
<p>L&#8217;AFSGH a financé en décembre une troisième mission à Vohibe organisée par The Aspinall Foundation et le GERP.</p>
<p>Les objectifs de cette mission :</p>
<p>- Poursuivre le suivi de la population de grands hapalémurs.</p>
<p>- Poursuivre les actions de sensibilisation auprès des communautés villageoises et dans les écoles.</p>
<p>Un nouveau groupe de grands hapalémurs a été repéré, composé de 5 individus. Ainsi depuis mai 2011, 19 individus ont été observés divisés en 3 groupes et un individu solitaire :</p>
<p>Groupe 1 (Vohibe Est) : 5 adultes dont 2 mâles, 2 femelles et 1 non sexé, 1 subadulte non sexé et un bébé mâle de 2 mois.</p>
<p>Groupe 2 (Vohibe Est) : 5 adultes dont 1 mâle, 1 femelles et 3 non sexés et 1 subadulte non sexé.</p>
<p>Groupe 3 (Vohibe Est) : 1 individu seul non séxé.</p>
<p>Groupe 4 (Vohibe Ouest) : 1 couple.</p>
<p>Une première étude préliminaire a été réalisée sur le Groupe 1 ce qui a permis d&#8217;obtenir des données sur le rythme d&#8217;activité des animaux : Alimentation (20%), Repos (45 %), Déplacement (31 %) et Activités sociales (4%).  Même si cette fois, les animaux sont moins mobiles (ce qui n&#8217;est pas le cas du groupe 2 nouvellement découvert), ils restent cachés dans le feuillage et leur observation est difficile; conséquence d&#8217;une pression anthropique importante (chasse, coupe de bois,&#8230;) déjà évoquée dans les premiers rapports.</p>
<p>De nouveaux échantillons de fécès ont été collectés pour les analyses génétiques.</p>
<p>De nouvelles activités de sensibilisation ont été organisées dans  :</p>
<p>-4 villages : ateliers participatifs au cours desquels les villageois ont exprimé leurs difficultés et avec de l&#8217;aide leur volonté de changer leurs habitudes pour diminuer l&#8217;exploitation de la forêt.</p>
<p>-3 écoles dont 2 écoles primaires et un collège soit près de 300 enfants : Les activités, préalablement préparées avec les enseignants, ont évaluées pour tester les connaissances des élèves. Les résultats sont très encourageants. Il est à noté que de telles activités n&#8217;avaient jamais été organisées dans le collège auparavant. De nombreux cahiers ont été distribués ainsi que des posters de l&#8217;AFSGH. Mais les besoins sont énormes (infrastructures, matériel scolaire, bibliothèque,&#8230;) et rendent l&#8217;education très difficile.</p>
<p>Quelle est la suite après ces 3 missions à Vohibe? Il reste en effet tellement de choses à faire&#8230;Nous réfléchissons à la suite à donner maintenant et vous tiendrons vite au courant&#8230;</p>

<p>En octobre-novembre 2011, l&#8217;AFSGH a financé une étude des populations de grand hapalémur dans le Parc National de Zahamena où des traces ont été observées en 2010. Cette étude a été réalisée par The Aspinall Foundation, le Groupe d&#8217;Etude et de Recherche des Primates de Madagascar (GERP) et l&#8217;association Mitsinjo.</p>

<p>Cette fois encore aucune observation directe de grand hapalémur n&#8217;a pu être faite, mais de nouvelles traces plus nombreuses qu&#8217;en 2010 ont été relevées. Voir photos ci-dessous : reste de bambou consommé par des grands hapalémurs.</p>

<p>Les populations de petit hapalémur, <em>Hapalemur occidentalis</em>, présentes également dans le parc et dont on connait peu de choses, ont également été suivies durant cette étude : abondance de l&#8217;espèce, description de l&#8217;habitat, alimentation et rythme d&#8217;activités. </p>

<p>Le parc abrite d&#8217;autres espèces de lémuriens qui ont aussi pu être observées pendant cette étude : indri, lépilémur, propithèque diadème, avahi, lémur vari, lémur brun, ainsi que des traces de ayes-ayes.</p>

Les pressions anthropiques sont nombreuses : coupe bois et bambou, chasse (avec des chiens parfois), pêche, collecte de miel, exploitation minière&#8230;</p>
<p><em>Although the park is protected, many lemur traps were found. Anthropogenic pressures are numerous: cut wood and bamboo, hunting (with dogs sometimes), fishing, gathering honey, mining&#8230; <br />
