SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

September 24, 2004, the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service (Service) issued a 

permit (PRT–094219) to the Lincoln 

Park Zoological Park, Chicago, IL, to 

import tissue samples from a male 

chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) which 

died in the wild in the Gombe Stream 

Reserve, Tanzania, for the purpose of 

scientific research to determine the 

cause of death and possible veterinary 

intervention required. This action was 

authorized under Section 10(c) of the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended (16 U.S.C. 1531, et seq.). The 

Service determined that an emergency 

affecting the health and life of the 

remaining chimpanzee population of 

the Gombe Stream Reserve existed, and 

that no reasonable alternative was 

available to the applicant for the 

following reasons. 

The Lincoln Park Zoo requested a 

permit to import multiple tissue 

samples from a male chimpanzee which 

recently died in the Gombe Stream 

Reserve, Tanzania for emergency and 

ongoing health/disease evaluation 

purposes. Samples will be utilized 

exclusively for diagnostic and scientific 

purposes. The specimens will be used to 

run diagnostics tests to determine the 

cause of death of the animal that died. 

Additional animals appear to be affected 

with similar symptoms as the animal 

which died and the necessary diagnostic 

testing is not available in Africa to 

adequately and quickly diagnose the 

pathogen or pathogens involved. The 

determination of the cause of the illness 

and possible treatment as quickly as 

possible will benefit the chimpanzee 

population in the wild.
