 * Research:**

Locate your animal’s habitat (Where does it live? Does it migrate?)** The drill lives from southeastern Nigeria to the forests of Cameroon and on Bioko Island. It spends most of its time on the forest floor but sometimes goes into the trees to look for fruit. **Include all subspecies or varieties of your animal** 1. Mandrill 2. Baboons 3. Mangabeys The drill resembles a mandrill. It has a beard, mane, and a muzzle. It has long arms, a short tail, and a vividly colored buttox. The drill’s head is black with a ring of white hair. Mandrills are a lot larger than drills. Male drills weigh up to 55 pounds. Female drills weigh in the 20’s range. Locate where it is endangered (might not be endangered in all its habitats)** Drills are forest dwelling animals. They are endangered in forests from southeastern Nigeria to western Cameroon and in the dense forests of Bioko Island. The drill is endangered mainly because of deforestation and hunting. The drill's most dangerous predator is the leopard. **3. Where is your animal in captivity and/or conserved? Locate at least two zoos and/or conservation centers where the animal is held.** The Atlanta Zoo and the Pandrillus Drill Rehabilitation and Breeding Center Locate where research is done on your animal and where efforts are underway to conserve its population (Note: It may be that this is done at the same location(s) you identified in #3)** Southeastern Nigeria,  Cameroon, and on Bioko Island. Kathy Wood and Erica Farrell and The pandrillus Drill Rehabilitation and Breeding Center. **Outline any research and efforts to conserve the population** People are taking them into captivity to help reserve the population. **Photos http://www.flickr.com/photos/nilssh/417853798/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/mirsasha/1409266569/
