Survey of elephants populations in Ifon Forest Reserve will be carried out during the rainy and dry season of 2007. Data collection will be carried out directly in the field through sighting, collection of dung specimen, identification of feeding sites and routes; and estimation of the group size of forest elephants in Ifon Forest Reserve.

The report of survey will be presented to the Ondo State Government in order to assist in the development of Management Plan for the Reserve. A small illustrative information leaflet will be produced to support public awareness on conservation of elephants and other endangered species in Ifon Forest Reserve. The project will take place specifically within twelve months between May 2007 and April 2008.
