Produktbeschreibung
The "Wildlife Consumption and Ebola Infection" Book has explored the consumption of monkeys and bats in Tombel and Bamenda towns respectively. This academic piece of work explains how these wildlife species are still highly consumed even as Ebola disease outbreak has occurred in some parts of Sub-Saharan Africa from the consumption.

An average Cameroonian is educated and many people already know about the health risk and cost of contracting viral diseases like Ebola in consuming monkeys and bats, however, the determination for consumption is a severe health problem and challenge.
