Sparks gorillas papers, 1925-1962 (bulk 1931-1932)..4 ft.Chiefly correspondence between Richard Sparks and a variety of people, mainly from the 1930s, about the proper treatment of gorillas. Of particular concern is the well-being of Ngagi, Mbongo, and Okere, captured by author Martin Johnson in the Belgian Congo, in 1931. Sparks advocates for their scientific study in a zoo rather than becoming a circus sideshow. Chief correspondents are: Mary L. Jobe Akeley, naturalist associated with the American Museum of Natural History; Belle J. Benchley, manager of the Zoological Society of San Diego; and Harold C. Bingham, psychobiologist in the study of gorilla behavior. Other correspondence, magazine articles, and black-and-white photographs are concerned with Congo, a gorilla brought from the Belgian Congo in 1925 by author Ben Burbridge, and studied by Yale University researcher Robert M. Yerkes. Miscellaneous material relates to Carl Akeley's animal sculptures, Theodore Spicer-Simson's medallic art, and other gorillas in captivity.

In the opening sequence, Carl Ethan Akeley (associate in the AMNH Department of Mammalogy, and associate curator and adviser in the AMNH Department of Preparation) watches artist William R. Leigh painting habitat studies for the background of the klipspringer group, one of the dioramas now in the museum's Akeley Hall of African Mammals. At the campsite, located in the Lukenia Hills 40 miles east of Nairobi, Leigh and artist Arthur Jansson display their canvases; preparator Richard Raddatz makes plaster casts of leaves and other accessories for habitat groups; Mary Jobe Akeley is seen writing in her tent and taxidermist Robert H. Rockwell is seen at work. Later in the mess tent Raddatz, Jansson, Mary Akeley, Rockwell, and Leigh are joined by Carl Akeley. At another campsite in Uganda, Mary Akeley disturbs a hornbill nest in the hollow of a tree so that the nest's inhabitants will appear. This sequence filmed over a long period shows the male hornbill feeding his family through the opening in the tree trunk; eventually, the juvenile is old enough to leave the nest but perches on a branch still begging for food. Robert Rockwell tans a giraffe hide at a campsite in Tanganyika (now Tanzania). Various African mammals also appear: giraffes, cows, oryxes, Burchell's zebras, Thomson's gazelles, eland, and klipspringers. The Eastman-Pomeroy-Akeley East African Expedition was Carl Akeley's last: he died on November 17, 1926, at Mount Mikeno in the Kivu district of the Belgian Congo (now Zaire).American Museum of Natural HistoryEastman-Pomeroy-Akeley African Expedition (1926-1927).
