The "Conservation Problem" slide presents stark stats on bushmeat trade and deforestation. It notes 60% of bushmeat species at extinction risk from wild meat trade (IUCN), over 5 million animals hunted yearly for urban markets, and 25% of annual forest loss in the Cameroon Congo Basin.

The slide, titled "Research Questions," lists three key inquiries about urban wild meat consumption. It asks who consumes it, how often they eat it, and what motivates their choices.
The "Methods Overview" slide describes key research methods, including household surveys (n=500) in Yaoundé and Douala, key informant interviews with consumers, and wild meat market observations. It also includes a simple methods flowchart.

Yaoundé leads wild meat consumption at 45%, followed by Douala at 35% and other cities at 20%. Additionally, 60% of consumers are males aged 25-45.
