Primate-source country: a country with naturally occurring primate populations. Protected area: an area that has a protected designation according to legal statute. Conservation biology: multidisciplinary, scientific study of biodiversity, with the goal of protecting species. National park in the highland regions of eastern madagascar have successfully transitioned from using unsustainable slash and burn methods to more sustainable tiered rice fields.

Ecotourism: a form of low-impact, culturally sensitive tourism that can generate income for local people.
