A number of studies have been conducted in New Dabaga/Ulangambi Forest Reserve (NDUFR) in the Udzungwa Mountain block. Marshall et al. (2004) found a high level of hunting. The population density of Blue and Harvey’s duikers in NDUFR was reduced by 10% when compared to their density in West Kilombero Scarp Forest Reserve, which is subject to only low hunting pressure. Further, bush pig and Abbott’s duiker in NDUFR appear to be severely depleted and potentially extirpated (Nielsen 2005). Nielsen also found that the number of hunters positively correlated with village population. The reports indicate that previous researchers found that groups of Procolobus badius rarely have
major threat to biodiversity. Trapping activities were found in 11 separate locations distributed throughout the forest. The types of trapping found were pitfall traps (designed for antelopes and buffalo), snare wires (for duiker) and raised log traps (for cane rats). But, pitfall trapping presents the most serious threat because they can continue killing animals, including unintended species, up to several years after their construction. For instance, during their work the Frontier Tanzania (2005) research team found a dead young elephant in a poachers' pitfall trap. Table 6 shows species hunted and hunting methods used in various mountain blocks. Table 6: A summary of hunting location, species hunted, methods of hunting and sources of information.
