These events can wreak rapid and significant changes on ecosystems; thus, it is imperative to understand how wildlife communities respond to these disruptions. Primates are perceived as being a largely adaptable order, but we often lack the quantitative data to rigorously assess how they are impacted by extreme environmental change. Leveraging detections from a long\u2010term camera trap survey, this opportunistic study reports the effects of an extreme weather event on a little\u2010studied population of free\u2010ranging primates in Gorongosa National Park, Mozambique.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We examined shifts in gray\u2010footed chacma baboon (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>Papio ursinus griseipes<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content>) and vervet monkey (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\"><jats:italic>Chlorocebus pygerythrus<\/jats:italic><\/jats:styled-content>) spatial distribution and relative abundance following Cyclone Idai\u2014a category four tropical cyclone that struck Mozambique in March 2019.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Baboon spatial distributions were impacted in the first month after the cyclone, with more detections in areas where flooding was less severe.
