The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend This review utilized animal models of complicated human pregnancies that result in reduced fetal nutrient or oxygen delivery, or combined nutrient and oxygen delivery, to elucidate their independent and/or synergistic contributions to the development of high‐risk cardiac phenotypes.

Impacted Bones: Can Extant Primates Help Identify Tool Use in Early Hominins?
Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co‐existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. In addition to analyzing fossils and lithic toolkits, novel strides in understanding this might be made by

From Cohesion to Norms: How Animal Groups Come, Stay, and Function Together
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 604-622, September 2026.The present review underscores two salient points: In the context of evolutionary transitions to pair‐ and group living, it is imperative to acknowledge the distinction between selective forces that act during the origin of these social systems and those that act during their subsequent maintenance.

Meat Acquisition Skill and Male Reproductive Success in Guinea Baboons
American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Objectives In human foraging societies, hunting skill is often interpreted as a signal of male quality linked to reproductive success through his ability to provision his family and community. Similarly, in some bird and insect species, males offer mates food to indicate their quality as a provider.

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1627-1640, August 2026.ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.

The Postprandial Chronobiome in Interorgan Glucose Homeostasis
Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2026.The postprandial chronobiome framework proposes that meal‐timed oscillations in microbial communities and metabolites may interact with host tissue clocks to shape glucose handling. The liver is the best‐supported temporal interpreter, while phase‐aware human studies are needed to establish causal interorgan effects.

Baboon Ecology: Baboon Behavior: Baboon Social Organization: The Baboon Troop: Dynamics of Male Dominance in a Baboon Troop [PDF]
American Anthropologist, 1973 openaire +1 more source
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Conflicts between humans and carnivores were assessed in the nearby settlements of the Jorgo‐Wato Protected Forest. This aimed to identify carnivorous species responsible for livestock depredations, quantify the economic losses resulting from depredations, and identify strategies used by nearby communities to prevent human‐carnivore conflicts in the ...

Familiarity and aggression shape long‐term associations and mortality risk in a solitary ungulate
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Periodic social interactions are important to animal fitness, even in solitary species. For solitary species, these interactions can be unexpected and shaped by previous encounters. Despite being aggressive and largely solitary, black rhinoceroses Diceros bicornis are commonly seen in groups, suggesting they may engage in more social behaviours than ...

Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1298-1310, August 2026.We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.
