Includes bibliographical references (p. 146-168). This study investigates whether anthropogenic changes in the Cape Peninsula, South Africa, have affected gastrointestinal parasite infections in a free-living population of chacma baboons (Papio ursinus). Data on parasite diversity and prevalence were obtained from 616 faecal samples collected from over 350 individuals in eight troops (six from the Cape Peninsula, one from Pringle Bay, and one from Wildcliff Nature Reserve) between July 2006 and August 2007. 2014-08-13T14:06:09Z 2014-08-13T14:06:09Z 2009 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6166 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
