The Sahamalza sportive lemur, Lepilemur sahamalazensis, is a small nocturnal primate that was discovered only recently in the north-west of Madagascar. In comparison to other sportive lemur species it has received very little scientific attention so far. This project aimed at studying the social organisation of the Sahamalaza sportive lemur as a step towards discovering more about this virtually unknown species.

This study is based on fishing cat( Prionailurus viverrinus), an endangered species residing in Gannoruwa forest reserve Kandy. They are mainly threatened due to habitat loss,road kills and poaching . In this study population trends, threats,ecology, and abundance of fishing cats were monitored. Awareness rising programs along with the implementing world fist road signs which dedicated to fishing cats were done through this project.

The greater big-footed mouse is endemic in Madagascar. Its habitats are disturbed by human activities and predation. Studies of its movements and territory occupation have been carried out in Ankarafantsika to adopt appropriate conservation strategy. Surveys of this species have been carried out on October by using capture-mark-recapture. A measurement of few habitat variables has been performed to understand its habitat preference.

The population of Snow Leopard is declining because of habitat degradation and fragmentation, reduction in natural prey due to illegal hunting as well as competition with livestock, retaliatory killing of snow leopard, lack of awareness and lack of trans-boundary efforts. This project aims to minimize the human-snow leopard conflict through local people's participation in highland of Dolpa region.

Uganda mangabeys occur in a few forests in Uganda and are so threatened that they appear to have disappeared even in some of the forests where they were known to occur as recently as three years ago. This project is conducting an inventory of their presence and absence in different sites and is habituating groups in one of the forests with major populations for tourism.
