L Cronin MBE Trustee 03101# ## **Endangered Asian Species Trust Trustees Report** February 2021 to February 2022 The Endangered Asian Species Trust works to help stop the illegal trade in primates, with a specific focus on South Vietnam. In South Vietnam the Dao Tien Endangered Primate Species Centre founded in 2008 continues to work in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam in the rescue, rehabilitation and release of endangered primates, naturally occurring in South Vietnam. Running alongside the animal welfare is a strong education awareness program; working in schools, local communities and internationally. ## **Activities:** ## **1. Endangered Primate RESCUE** Dao Tien receives endangered primates confiscated by Vietnamese Government authorities, enforcing national and international law. In this last year Dao Tien rescued one golden-cheeked gibbon ( _Nomascus gabriellae_ ), one douc langur ( _Pygathrix nigripes)_ , and 6 pygmy slow loris ( _Nycticebus pygmaeus_ ) from the illegal wildlife trade. **1.1 Nomascus** : The crested gibbon rescued involved one infant from the Central Highlands ept illegally as a pet chained up. Working closely with the Lam Dong Forestry Protection department the young male infant was confiscated following Vietnamese Law and transferred to Dao Tien. The infant estimated at 12 months of age underwent health screening (see Figure 1) and Genetic confirmation of Nomascus species. Figure 1. Lewis health check and disease screening The infant (named Lewis) confirmed disease free and genetically confirmed as gabriellae was then socialised with a companion. Normally we cho se surrogate mothers for infants, but we decided to socialise him with an adolescent female who was on track for the trees, as Lewis based on his lack of humanisation (see Figure 2). Figure 2. Lewis pre-socialisation _Identified issues_ : Gibbons from the pet trade have often been humanised- which ultimately makes them unfit for release when mature. To fast track infants into the trees that are not friendly to humans is key in gibbon rehabilitation. Two issues have been identified (a). A high percentage of gibbons rescued are unfit for release, based on disease profile or social behaviour. Exit strategies (re-homing in non-release centres) need to be found. This strategy will be considered by the Government but has been delayed by Covid restrictions. We now plan to further investigate exit-strategies in the next three years (b). No more capacity to rescue gibbons until exit-strategies found or successful release protocols. **1.2 Pygathrix** : One infant douc was rescued this year (see Figure 3). The young douc arrived very sick and died overnight. Post-mortem results suggested severe dehydration and stress We were aware of other douc but they died before rescue, so numbers received does not truly indicate the scale of the trade. An online workshop took place with delegates from the Southern heads of Forestry Protection Departments from the South of Vietnam, to strengthen the support for primate rescue and especially douc rescue (Figure 4 & 5). Information was provided on (a) immediate care for douc (b) the need for rapid transfer to a specialist facility like Dao Tien (c) a need for further focus on this under-studied genus in the wild, (d), and in particular investigation into the black-shanked douc nutrition in the wild and captivity, as more complex than the red and grey species, who rely more heavily on leaf. Figure 3. Very sick infant blackshanked douc receiving specialist care on Dao Tien. . Figure 4. Workshop gifts for all delegates. Figure 5. Dao Tien staff all attended the workshop ## _Identified issues_ : Three Issues identified: (a) Dao Tien had identified the need for specialist douc facilities, taking into consideration specialist needs. This was delayed in 2021 due to COVID - we hope 2022/23 the construction will be complete (b) strong law enforcement needed to confiscate douc from the illegal trade, an issue has been identified with law enforcement with ethnic minority groups c) Once douc are confiscated they must be rapidly transferred to specialist centres such as Dao Tien to limit damage from feeding the incorrect diet. The workshop has increased awareness for this to be done, but not yet fully acted upon. **1.3 Nycticebus:** Slow loris rescue has been continuous since 2008, with the care for over 190 individuals. Most have arrived malnourished with minor injuries. Emergency care on arrival has now been established for this species. Paper being published on pygmy loris morbidity- from problems from rescue and problems occurring during captive care, with improved husbandry outlined to eliminate the main causes of morbidity (see Figure 6). Figure 6. Initial assessment of pygmy ow oris on arrival at Dao Tien. ## _Identified issues:_ Captive care has been developed over the last year and now a good knowledge and standard of care has been achieved, to be published in the Journal of Vietnamese Primatology. This sharing of knowledge is key to ensure increased husbandry practice and captive management within Vietnam and South-east Asia and to ex-situ. More specialised information on captive care is needed for Bengal low oris ( _Nycticebus bengalensis_ ) ## **2. Endangered Primate REHABILITATION** The rehabilitation of endangered primates is always in constant development and improvement (husbandry techniques, using new data gathered from wild observations and post-release individuals . **2.1 Nomascus** : We care for 38 gibbons from the illegal trade, at different stages of rehabilitation (quarantine to release). Maintaining and improving the standard of welfare for nonreleasable gibbons and improving our phase two rehabilitation process before release (see Figure 7). Figure 7: Rehabilitation of _Nomascus gabriellae_ on Dao Tien Island, phase one. ## _Identified issues_ : (a) Gibbons being apes humanise easily, and the need for more forested enclosures instead of cages at the start of rehabilitation is important (b) The maintenance of forested enclosures in forest is expensive, with high frequency of tree falls (Figure 8). Slowly the fences are being modified to be less to damage from lightning strike and the structure simplified repair after tree fall . Figure 8. Tree fall on forested gibbon enclosure fence line. **2.2 Nycticebus** : ontinued rehabilitation and preparation for release. We have identified that short term and long term captive animals can be released. We now are working on long term humanised pygmy low loris displaying significant behavioural problems - if they can be rehabilitated and ultimately released So far after two years of work this is looking very positive with one individual starting to socialise (Figure 9 & 10) and ready to move into a forested enclosure. Figure 9. Ex-pet pygmy slow loris Xuli Figure 10. Xuli and Binh sleeping post-introduction **2.3 Pygathrix:** The social, physical and nutritional needs of infant, juvenile and adolescent douc are very challenging in captivity. We have a focussed team who provide emotional support, another team who collect known wild douc leaf species and wild douc faeces to help maintain a healthy gut. Work has been done on health screening specific to douc and extra nutrition needed for transition from juvenile to adolescent animals. _Identified issues_ : The rehabilitation of douc (especially black-shanked) is challenging (a) Live animals are still not transferred rapidly enough (b) The difference in black-shanked diet to grey has been identified - with less leaf eaten (Figure 11 & 12). Development of the diet beyond leaf is key for healthy black-shanked douc, especially with growth spurts. Working closely with wild observations we have developed a more specific diet for blackshanked (c) the orphan douc with daily activities in the trees have achieved normal forest skills, there is a need now to remove the human link of being carried to and from the trees. A new forested enclosure is need . - ## **3. Endangered Primate RELEASE** **3.1. Nycticebus** : anaged release of 8 pygmy slow loris from the illegal pet trade. This has allowed Dao Tien to reach the point of a successful flow from rescue release. Work to be presented at Vietnamese Primate Symposium November 2022. elease protocol requires low levels of funding does not need expensive equipment attention to release protocol criteria Figure 13. Slow loris transport box. _tified issues:_ Not able to release Bengal slow loris. The genetics data on Bengal slow loris is not yet available to clarify origin for individuals we receive, and thus where they should be released (Vietnam, Cambodia or Thailand). We hope with continued collaboration with Professor Anna Nekaris and Christian Roos this will be achieved 2023. 3.2 Nomascus: Gibbon release has been delayed due to COVID. ## _Identified issues_ : (a) Community Engagement work is in preparation to support the local people living near the release site (b) Investigation into improved ways to receive telemetry signals from released gibbons. Dao Tien carries out constant research on nutrition, captive behaviour, with onsite capacities increased with post-mortem sample collection to ensure as much data is gathered at all times. _Identified issue_ : Due to COVID and the inability for research students to visit onsite, Vietnamese International research has been limited. International experts such as our Veterinary support team have also been unable to travel to Vietnam, forcing EAST to find solutions within country. This has triggered greater collaboration within Vietnam with specialists, such as wildlife veterinarians. ## **5. Captive Breeding** . Dao Tien does not actively seek to breed individuals, and carries out an ongoing program of contraception. Breeding is only permitted in individuals in the final stages of pre-release **6. Construction:** ith COVID restrictions and ensuring safety of our primates, no major construction has taken place, just ongoing repairs. _Identified issues:_ New douc facility urgently needed. **7. Education:** On site education awareness tours and community outreach suspended due to COVID. _Identified issues_ : The education awareness is needed in the buffer zone with local community in preparation for releases. During COVID online English tuition was attempted but failed, due to a strong trusting relationship not yet in place. **Collaboration and sharing of information** : Collaboration from Government down to local communities is key, especially between provinces in South Vietnam. A uccessful nline orkshop took place, linking 15 Forestry Protection Departments from the South Vietnam, with a sign-on agreement for closer cooperation with the rescue and transfer of endangered primates. **Capacity Building:** Two new primate care staff have started and been trained on gibbon husbandry, enclosure maintenance and repair (Figure 15). Figure 15. New primate care staff, Mr Phuc. ## **How achievement of aims will further mission** . In conclusion with increased collection of specialist knowledge and improved co operation between provinces in South Vietnam, the wildlife rescue network within South Vietnam will become strong. From improved ecological knowledge of law enforcement officers, effective inter provincial cooperation in the transfer of confiscated individuals, improved application of specialist captive primate rescue welfare, rehabilitation, resulting finally in the successful managed release. Beyond South Vietnam the data collected will help conservation of these species throughout their geographical range and globally in captive breeding programs.
