The Ontogeny of “Twitter” Calls in White‐Faced Capuchins (Cebus imitator): Usage, Context, and Acoustic Structure

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT In stark contrast to our own highly plastic communicative abilities, nonhuman primate vocalizations were historically considered fixed and innate, with very little ability to learn or modify vocal signals. However, recent studies indicate that primate vocalizations do show evidence of developmental plasticity, most notably in their context and

Quality and overlap of individual core areas are related to group tenure in female spider monkeys [PDF]

In species with a high degree of fission-fusion dynamics group members may differ in the use of the group home range to reduce food competition. Such differential use may result in distinct individual core areas.

Influence of Food Distribution and Relatedness on Social Interactions in a Colony of Free‐Ranging Domestic Cats (Felis catus)

Ethology, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2025.
In a free‐ranging colony of domestic cats, individuals engaged in affiliative but not agonistic behaviors in a selective manner. The distribution of food resources but not relatedness influenced affiliative interactions between dyads of cats. When food was provided at feeding stations, there was a similar distribution of affiliative interactions among ...
